Verifying Access Point Operation
Before mounting the unit, Ruckus Wireless strongly recommends that you verify that the
AP is operating correctly. To do this, you will need to connect the AP to your live network
temporarily and make sure that the network connection works and that wireless clients are
able to associate with the AP and connect to your network and the Internet.
NOTE:
The network and power connections that you will be making in this step are
temporary. You can perform these verification tasks indoor.

is operating normally and no wireless clients are associated with it:

clients connected to the AP’s WLAN service.
