1. Attach the power adapter output connector to the Actiontec Wireless Access
Point, plug it into an AC outlet and check the power LED to confirm if you are
connected properly.
2. Identify the Ethernet port, which is located next to the power connector on the
Actiontec Wireless Access Point.
3. Attach the Ethernet cable to the Actiontec Wireless Access Point and connect the
cable on the other end to either a hub in the network or a computer. Please see
the note below for proper connection.
If the Actiontec Wireless Access Point is connected to an Ethernet switch or
hub, a "normal" (not a cross-wired) Ethernet cable must be used.
If the Actiontec Wireless Access Point is connected directly to a computer, a
"cross-wired" (not a normal) Ethernet cable must be used.
Connecting to a switched Ethernet port is recommended so that the full 11
Mbps bandwidth of the Access Point is dedicated.
