Post-configuring PC Setup
At this point an Internet connection should have been successfully established between the
access point and the PePWave Mesh Connector. The PC that was previously pre-configured
to administrate the unit has to reconfigure its Local Area Connection and be set to ‘Obtain
an IP address automatically’.
An ‘Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) Properties’ screen will appear. Please set as follows:
Click the “OK” button to confirm the change.
For now the PC will send a DHCP request directly to the access point via the PePWave Mesh
Connector, and an IP address will be assigned from the access point to the PC.

Firmware Upgrade
The PePWave devices are able to check whether a newer firmware (the software running on
the unit) is available. This can be done in the Firmware Upgrade section.
However, it is recommended that you do not update the firmware unless specifically
instructed by your ISP to do so. When a firmware upgrade is needed, your ISP will either
give you instructions or upgrade the firmware remotely.
