Quick Setup Guide
This Quick Setup Guide provides step-by-step instructions on how to set up your Ruckus
Wireless ZoneFlex R710 Dual Band 802.11ac Multimedia Wi-Fi Access Point (AP). After
completing the steps described in this Guide, you will be able to place the R710 at your
site and provide wireless network access to users. The rest of this document refers to the
R710 as an AP.

Continue with the following steps:
• Step 1: Collecting Setup Requirements, Hardware, and Tools
• Step 2: Connecting Your Computer to the AP
• Step 3: Preparing Your Computer for AP Setup
• Step 4: Logging Into the AP
• Step 5: Customizing the Wireless Settings
• Step 6: Placing the AP in Your Site
• Step 7: Verifying the Installation
Step 1: Collecting Setup Requirements, Hardware,
and Tools
• A computer running Windows 7 (procedures for common operating systems are
similar).
• One Cat 5e (or better) Ethernet cable.
• A Ruckus Wireless 12VDC 902-1169-xx00 AC power adapter (sold separately)
--OR--
an 802.3at-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch or PoE injector.
--OR--
an 802.3af-compliant PoE switch or PoE injector. Note: The AP can operate off of
802.3af power, but the feature set is reduced: the USB port is disabled, the second
(eth1) Ethernet port is disabled, and the 2.4 GHz transmit power is reduced from
28dBm to 25dBm (aggregate of spatial streams), and country limits apply.
Note: The PoE switch port must run link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) power over
Ethernet/MDI (PoE+) in order for the R710 to operate in full-power mode. This may
require enabling both LLDP and Power via MDI (dot3) on the switch, if available.
Optional hardware and tools:
• Customer-supplied small padlock with a 3.5mm (0.14") or smaller shackle diameter,
used to fasten the AP to the secure mounting bracket or the T-bar bracket.
• Customer-ordered Ruckus Wireless 902-0120-0000 secure mounting bracket kit:
• If you are mounting the AP on a flat surface using the secure mounting bracket
kit, then you need an electric drill with 4.75mm (3/16") drill bits.
• If you are mounting the AP on a pipe or pole using the secure mounting bracket
kit, then you will also need a 38.1mm to 63.5mm (1.5" to 2.5") pipe or pole,
two included stainless steel clamps, and hand tools to tighten the clamps.
Continue with Step 2: Connecting Your Computer to the AP.
Step 2: Connecting Your Computer to the AP
A After removing your AP from its package, place it next to your computer.
B Using an Ethernet cable, connect your computer's network port to the 10/100/1000
POE In port on the AP (A in Figure 2).
C Using an AC adapter (sold separately), connect the AP 12VDC port (B in Figure 2)
to a convenient (and protected) power source.
Alternatively, connect the 10/100/1000 POE In port to a PoE injector or switch for
both power and network connectivity.

D Verify that the PWR LED on the AP is a steady green.
Continue with Step 3: Preparing Your Computer for AP Setup.
Step 3: Preparing Your Computer for AP Setup
Note: The following procedures assume that Windows 7 is the operating system.
Procedures for other operating systems are similar.
A On your Windows 7 computer, configure your network adapter from the Local Area
Connection settings as follows:
• Start > Control Panel > Network and Sharing Center >
Change Adapter Settings
B Edit the TCP/IPv4 address settings as follows:
• Local Area Connection > Properties > Internet Protocol
Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) > Properties
The Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties dialog box appears.
Important! Write down all of the currently active settings so you can restore your
computer to its current configuration later (when this process is complete).
C Select Use the following IP address (if it is not already selected) and then
make the following entries:
• IP address: 192.168.0.22 (or any available address in the 192.168.0.x
network, except 192.168.0.1)
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
• Default gateway: 192.168.0.1
Leave the DNS server fields empty.
