  • Page 5: Configuring The Settings

    Configuring the Settings The device is set to DHCP by default, so it will try to automatically obtain an IP address. If that fails, it will use the default fallback IP address, 192.168.1.20. Proceed to the appropriate section, “DHCP” “Fallback IP Address”: DHCP Use one of the following methods:...
  • Page 6 Set up the DHCP server to provide a specific IP address to the device based on its MAC address (on the label). Let the device obtain an IP address and then check the DHCP server to see which IP address was assigned. 1.
  • Page 7 Note: The key is an alphanumeric password between 8 and 63 characters long. 6. Click Save Changes. 7. Configure each airFiber radio with a unique IP address: a. Click the icon. b. Review the Network settings to ensure that each airFiber radio has a unique IP address. Each can get its IP address via DHCP, or use a static IP address.

    Optional Alignment Tips To accurately align the airFiber radios for best performance, you MUST align only one end of the link at a time. You may need to use additional hardware to compensate for issues such as the improper orientation of a mounting pole or significant elevation differences between airFiber radios.

    step 1. 3. Open the Configuration Interface, select Tools, and then select Align Antenna. 4. Repeat steps 1-2 until you have achieved an optimal link and both the 60G and 5G LEDs are solidly lit blue. This ensures the best possible data rate between the airFiber radios. Note: Maximum signal strength can best be achieved by iteratively sweeping through both azimuth and elevation.
