Deploy the Access Point
1. Disconnect the access point and position it where you will deploy it. The best
location is elevated such as wall or ceiling mounted, at the center of your
wireless coverage area, and within line of sight of all mobile devices.
a. From your PC, configure the access point Ethernet port for LAN access.
Connect to the access point by opening your browser and entering
http://192.168.0.100 in the address field.
Estimated Completion Time: 3 minutes.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your access point to a LAN port on your
router, switch, or hub.
Tip: Before mounting the access point in a high location, first set up
and test the unit to verify wireless network connectivity.
3. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power
adapter into a power outlet. The Power and LAN LEDs should go on.
b. A login window displays. When
prompted, enter admin for the user
name and password for the

1. Connect the wireless access point to your computer.
Tip: The access point supports Power over Ethernet (PoE). If you have
a switch that provides PoE, you do not need to use the power adapter
to power the access point. This can be especially convenient when the
access point is installed in a high location far from a power outlet.
a. Prepare a PC with an Ethernet adapter. If this PC is already part of your
network, record its TCP/IP configuration settings. Configure the PC with a
static IP address of 192.168.0.210 and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
The access point user interface
