CONFIGURING THE AP

Step 1: Collecting the AP MAC Address

your local network and configure it for initial operation. In that
case, you may not need to complete the following steps.
Step 2: Collecting Setup Requirements,
Hardware, and Tools
• A computer with Ethernet adapter running Windows 7 or
equivalent, with Firefox or equivalent web browser.
• One Cat 5e (or better) Ethernet cable.
• An AC-to-12VDC power adapter (sold separately)
--OR--
an 802.3af-compliant Power over Ethernet (PoE) switch or PoE
injector.

Step 3: Connecting Your Computer to the AP

1. After removing the AP from its package, place it next to your
computer.
2. Using an Ethernet cable, connect your computer's network
port to the POE IN port on the AP.
3. Connect the AC power adapter (sold separately) to the 12V
DC AP port, and plug the AC power adapter into a
convenient and protected AC power source.
Alternatively, connect the POE IN port to a PoE injector or
PoE switch for both power and network connectivity.

• Local Area Connection > Properties > Internet Protocol
Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) > Properties
The Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) Properties dialog
box appears.
NOTE: Write down all of the currently active settings so
you can restore your computer to its current
configuration when this procedure is completed.
3. Select Use the following IP address (if it is not already
selected) and then make the following entries:
• IP address: 192.168.0.22 (or any available address in the
192.168.0.x network, except 192.168.0.1, which is the
default used by the R350 AP)
• Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
• Leave the DNS server and Default gateway fields empty.
4. Click OK to save your changes. Your changes are put into
effect immediately.
