  • Page 28: Configuring Network Settings

    Configuring Network Settings The Ambisonic L-240 Wireless Amplifier can be configured as either a WAP (Wireless Access Point) or as a Wireless Extender. Configuring the amplifier to work as either can be achieved through either wireless or Ethernet connections. Ethernet connection is best choice, for signal strength and reliability.
  • Page 29 WAP (Wireless Access Point) When the Ambisonic L-240 Wireless Amplifier is connected to the network with either an Ethernet or wireless connection, it will automatically begin acting as a WAP (Wireless Access Point). The L-240 is pre-configured with a default name and password.
  • Page 30 selecting “OK”, wait 2 minutes and then manually cycle your L- 240 off and on. Please also take this time to power cycle your router to ensure a solid connection is made after both systems reboot. System changes should take effect after the reboot of the amplifier and router.
  • Page 31 Extender The Ambisonic L-240 Wireless Amplifier can also be configured as a Wireless Extender. When configured as an Extender, you’ll be able to transition throughout your location while remaining connected to the same network. Once connected to the existing network at your location, access the configuration page of the amplifier at IP address: 192.168.100.1.
  • Page 32 Then, change both the name and password to match your current network. Doing so enables your L-240 amplifier to broadcast the same network name and password as your current router. This setup works best with a direct Ethernet connection. A hard- wired Ethernet connection allows the L-240 to broadcast at 100% signal strength.
