Enable the DHCP Client

By default, the DHCP client of the access point is enabled and the access point receives an IP address from
a DHCP server (or a router that functions as a DHCP server) in your network.
If you disabled the DHCP client, you can reenable it.
To enable the DHCP client:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or to
the access point directly through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The default user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you
logged in. The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard page displays.
