Wired connected PC can access the
internet (i.e. can browse the web) using
the same network.
• Check that a DHCP server is available,
or that you have configured a static IP
address on the radio.
• Check that you firewall is not blocking
any outgoing ports. As a minimum the
radio needs access to UDP and TCP
ports 80,443 and 8008, DNS port 53.
Obtain the MAC address from
Configuration > Information > Network
> Wi-Fi
MAC and add to the allowed
equipment list on your access point.
