Q. When WAP-4036 works with AP+WDS mode, can wireless clients connect to it?   

A. Yes, this mode is acting as an AP and Bridge at the same time, so the wireless client can access to 

AP+WDS mode WAP-4036 without problem. When wireless client connect to the remote site via 

AP+WDS mode, the performance will be 50%, just like connect to main AP via a repeater.   

 

Q. How much wired client can connect to Client mode WAP-4036?   

A. Only 1 wired client can connect to a WAP-4036 in Client mode. If the local network has more than 1 

wired PC need to connect via wireless, please set WAP-4036 to WDS mode. The WDS mode is 

designed for connecting multiple wired LANs.   

 

Q. Is WAP-4036 WDS mode compatible with other WDS (Bridge) mode device?   

A. It only can work with PLANET WRT-416 since they are using the same chipset. Because there is no 

wireless standards define for this special operating mode (WDS) so far, it is suggested to use the 

same devices to construct a WDS network. 

 

Q. I cannot access the Web-based Configuration Utility from the Ethernet computer used to 

configure the AP. 

A. Please check the following conditions to verify the correct operation of the AP: 

z

  Check that the LAN LED is on. If the LED is not on, verify that the cable for the LAN connection is 

firmly connected. 

z

  Check whether the computer resides on the same subnet with the AP’s LAN IP address. 

z

  If the computer acts as a DHCP client, check whether the computer has been assigned an IP 

address from the DHCP server. If not, you will need to renew the IP address.   

z

  Use the ping command to ping the AP’s LAN IP address to verify the connection. 

z

  Make sure your browser is not configured to use a proxy server. 

z

  Check that the IP address you entered is correct. If the AP’s LAN IP address has been changed, 

you should enter the reassigned IP address instead. 

 

Q. My wireless client cannot communicate with another Ethernet computer.

 

A. Please check the follow settings: 

z

 Ensure the wireless adapter functions properly. You may open the Device Manager in Windows to 

see if the adapter is properly installed. 

z

 Make sure the wireless client uses the same SSID and security settings (if enabled) as the 

Wireless Access Point. 

z

 Ensure that the wireless adapter’s TCP/IP settings are correct as required by your network 

administrator. 

z

 If you are using an 802.11b wireless adapter, and check that the 802.11b Mode item in Wireless 

Basic Setting page, is not configured to use 802.11g Performance.
