Connect the R1 Extender to a Local Computer
If you are configuring the R1 Extender locally (without connecting its power injector to a wired
LAN), connect a PC to the power injector’s Ethernet port using a Category 5 Ethernet cable.
1.
Assign a static IP address to your PC which is in the same network segment with the R1
Extender. As the default IP address of this unit is 192.168.1.1, you may choose from
192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254.
2.
Test the link status between your PC and the R1 Extender. Start a command prompt and
execute a continuous ping command “ping 192.168.1.1 –t”. If ping to the wireless bridge is
successful (as shown below), open Internet browser and enter the bridge’s IP address in
the address filed and press Enter.
