HP M210 802.11n Access Point Quickstart
Mount the M210 as follows:
1.
The M210 has two mounting screw holes (1 in illustration) on the center of the back of
the unit. Use the two embossed arrows (2 in illustration) at one end of the M210 to mark
the two screw hole positions 83 mm (3.25 inches) apart.
2.
Drill two holes of
appropriate diameter
for the screws or wall
anchors. Insert the wall
anchors if applicable.
3.
Tighten both screws
until they protrude 6
mm (.25 inches).
4.
Position the two
mounting holes on the
back of the M210
against the two screws.
5.
Gently push the M210
against the two screws
so that they fit into the
mounting holes and
then slide the M210
slightly down until it is
sufficiently anchored.

A. Connect and power on the M210
1.
Configure your computer to use a static IP address in the range 192.168.1.2 to
192.168.1.254 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. Set the default gateway to
192.168.1.1 and DNS server to 192.168.1.1.
2.
Disable any wireless connection on your computer.
3.
Disconnect the M210 power source (power adapter, PoE switch, or PoE injector).
4.
Connect the Ethernet cables.
•
If using a power supply, connect your computer LAN port to the M210 Ethernet port.
•
If using a PoE switch, connect your computer and the M210 to the PoE switch.
•
If using a PoE injector, connect your computer LAN port to the PoE injector data in
port and connect the PoE injector data and power out port to the M210.
5.
Power on the M210.
•
If using a power supply, plug it into the wall and connect it to the M210.
•
If using a PoE switch or injector, power it on.
The M210 power LED flashes once per second as it starts up. Wait for the power LED to
remain on before proceeding to the next step.
B. Log in
A factory-default M210 is assumed.
The M210 is managed via its web-based management tool using Microsoft Internet
Note:
