    Overview Integrating the cutting edge of Internet Telephony and Access Point manufacturing experience, Legrand now introduces the latest member of our Wireless Access Point family: the DA1101 N-WAP. The N-WAP provides high-performance Access Point (AP) function for flexible wireless communication.
  • Page 8 Reset Button: The DA1101 has a reset button accessible through either cover or with the cover off that can be pushed and held for 10 seconds to reset the DA1101 to factory default condition (the IP address is reset to 192.168.40.253).

    N-WAP which is already in Client Mode, so first, let’s go over the use of Client Mode. Client Mode Overview Client Mode is used where a second DA1101 N-WAP is configured as a wireless remote client of the original N-WAP and connects directly to a LAN or PC (no wireless devices), while the original N-WAP connects to the router as in AP Mode.
  • Page 15 In this Client Mode, as in AP Mode, the router acts as the DHCP server, so if its IP address is say 192.168.40.254, it will give out IP addresses to all DHCP configured wireless devices in that 192.168.40.xxx sub network. The original N-WAP’s default address is 192.168.40.253, assuming no DHCP server for this example, (the Default Gateway is still the router at 192.168.40.254.), and the Client N-WAP is configured with an IP address of 192.168.40.252.
  • Page 16 You’ll also need to go to the “Wireless” “Basic Settings” screen (shown below), and change the SSID to something different than what you called the original N-WAP, and change its Network Type to “Infrastructure”. You’ll then need to go to the “Wireless” “Site Survey” screen and click “Site Survey” to search for the original N-WAP.
