You can ping the IP address of a device or network location from the access point and

the access point or directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window displays.
If your browser displays a security warning, you can proceed, or add an exception
for the security warning. For more information, see What to do if you get a browser
security warning on page 42.
