System Requirements

The DAP-1360 Wireless N Access Point is designed to work with computers equipped with Windows^®, Macintosh^®, or Linux-based operating systems.

To configure this Wireless N Access Point, you need a computer with an Ethernet interface and an Internet browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or above, Netscape Navigator 7.0 or above, or FireFox 1.5 or above.

Setting Up the DAP-1360

Step 1: Connect the Power Adapter.

Check the AC voltage of your AC power outlet against the AC power input of the power adapter. Connect the power adapter supplied with the DAP-1360 to the power socket on the back of this device first, then plug it to your AC power outlet. Check to see that the Power LED on the front panel of the DAP-1360 is turned ON.

The DAP-1360's power output is 5 volts DC, 1.2 Ampere. Use only the power adapter supplied with this DAP-1360 or one with the same power specifications. Using a power adapter with a different voltage or plugging your DAP-1360 to a wrong AC voltage outlet will damage this device and will void the warranty for this product.

Step 2: Connect the Antenna and Ethernet Cable

Connect both antennas to the antenna connectors on the back of the DAP-1360. Connect one end of the Ethernet cable to the LAN port on the back panel of the DAP-1360, and the other end of this cable to your computer's Ethernet port. If your computer is connected to an Ethernet network via an Ethernet switch, connect this end of the cable to the switch's port.

Step 3: Begin Configuring your DAP-1360

This configuration step presumes that you will use the DAP-1360's default factory setting of operation mode of AP (access point). This mode allows computers and devices equipped with 802.11n standard wireless LAN interfaces to communicate with other wireless computers and devices through the DAP-1360. In addition, the default factory setting provides no wireless security. To set the DAP-1360 to another operation mode and to set its wireless security, refer to its User's Manual.
