Quick Configuration - Comnet netwave NW2 Installation And Operation Manual

INSTALLATION AND OPERATION MANUAL

7.0 Quick Configuration

1. Connect an Ethernet cable from the port labelled as IN on the power Injection Module to
either a laptop or a PC LAN port.
2. Connect the second Ethernet cable from the OUT port on the Power Injection Module to the
NetWave LAN port.
3. Apply 24VDC to the Power Injection Module with the provided power supply. You should
notice the green LED illuminate in the Power Injection Module and the power LED on the
NetWave unit.
4. Set the IP address of the laptop being used to configure NetWave to static and the subnet to
192.168.10.x/24 subnet.
5. Point the browser to 192.168.10.101. This is the default address.
6. A login prompt will pop up. Enter:
ID admin
Password admin
7. Select the NETWORK SETTINGS tab and set the desired network settings.
Select Apply Settings
Select Save
Note: This will be the network address for the NetWave web server. It is not necessary to set to
the same subnet as the operating network but it is recommended.
8. Select the WIRELESS SETTINGS tab and set:
• Wireless mode – Set to AP or Client (Only need to do this on the NW1 and NW1 models)
• Country code – Only required if setting up the NW2 (ETSI) model
Note: It is the user's responsibility to ensure that the correct country is chosen. ComNet
accepts no liability for incorrect equipment set up.
• Output RF power – if RSSI is greater than 70, it is recommended to reduce RF TX power.
• Set SSID – if changing from the default setting
• Channel Spectrum Width – May want to reduce to 20M from the default 20/40M if the 5GHz
spectrum is crowded
• Wireless Security – if changing from default settings
• Select Apply Settings
• Select Save
Note: NWKx point to point kits have been set up at the factory and locked to each other. No
need to set Wireless Mode and may not need to set the IP address. These are designed to
connect to each other once powered and properly aligned.
Note: NW1 and NW2 Multipoint nodes will need to have the Wireless Mode set to either AP or
Client (default is Client). And the IP addresses will need to be all set to different addresses
(default address is 192.168.10.101). Once this is done, all the clients will connect to the
multipoint AP with all other setting kept at default.
