Access Point
A
Locate an optimum location
for the Access Point. The best
place for the Access Point is
usually at the center of your
wireless network, with line of
sight to your wireless devices.
Usually, the higher you place
the Access Point, the better the
performance will be.
B
Fix the direction of the anten-
nas. Both should be perpen-
dicular to the ground and
parallel to each other.
C
Connect the included Ethernet
network cable to the Access
Point. Connect the other end
of the network cable to a
C
switch or hub. The Access Point
will then be connected to your
wired network.
D
Connect the power adapter to
the Access Point's Power port.
Only use the power adapter
supplied with the Access Point.
D
Use of a different adapter may
result in product damage.
NOTE: In order for all other wireless
devices to communicate with the
Access Point, those devices must be
set to infrastructure mode. If any wire-
less devices are configured as ad-hoc
mode, they WILL NOT be recognized by
the Access Point.
