Before You Begin - D-Link DWL-2700AP Install Manual

Before You Begin

It's best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) connected to a switch
to configure the DWL-2700AP. The default IP address for the DWL-2700AP
is 192.168.0.50 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 on the wired Ethernet
side. You will need to assign your computer a static IP address within the
same range as the DWL-2700AP's IP address for the purpose of configuring
the DWL-2700AP. If you need assistance assigning a static IP address
to your network adapter, please refer to the manual on the CD-ROM.
Important Information
This product should ONLY be installed by an experienced installer
who is familliar with local building and safety codes and where ever
applicable, is licensed by the appropriate authorities. Failure to do so
may void the D-Link product warranty and may expose the end user
or the service provider to legal and financial liabilities. D-Link and its
resellers or distributors are not liable for injury, damage, or violation of
regulations associated with the installation of outdoor units or antennas.
A safety grounding system is necessary to protect your outdoor installation
from lightning strikes and the build-up of static electricity. Direct grounding
of the antenna mast, Outdoor AP, and Surge Arrester is very important.
When mounting the Outdoor AP on the antenna mast, you have to connect
the Outdoor AP to the same grounding system with the AC wall outlet. The
grounding system must comply with the National Electrical Code and safety
standards that apply in your country. Always check with a qualified electrician
if you are in doubt as to whether your outdoor installation is properly grounded.
