Connecting to SpaceLink Access Points
Wired Ethernet Cable
Besides using a network hub, you can also connect a LAN cable from your
computer's network card to the Access Point using either a straight or
crossover cable because the ASUS SpaceLink Access Point RJ-45 port has
auto-crossover capability.
Wireless Connection
If you are using a Notebook PC with a wireless adapter, you can connect to
the ASUS SpaceLink Access Point using the ASUS Access Point Manager
without a wired Ethernet connection.
Across Gateways
The ASUS Access Point Manager can connect to any ASUS SpaceLink
Access Point using its IP address even across gateways. The gateway settings
of the ASUS SpaceLink Access Point and your computer must be set
correctly according to the network environment.
Searching for SpaceLink Access Points
The computer running the ASUS Access Point Manager must be on the
same IP subnet as the ASUS SpaceLink Access Point.
1. When you open the ASUS Access
Point Manager, it automatically
searches for ASUS SpaceLink Ac-
cess Points on the same subnet.
You will not be able to see or config-
ure settings until the IP address is
changed so that the subnet matches
that of your computer running the
ASUS Access Point Manager.
