UNPACKING AND SETUP

This chapter provides unpacking and setup information for the Access Point.

Unpacking

Open the box of the Access Point and carefully unpack it. The box should contain the following items:

‹One Wireless Access Point

‹One external power adapter

‹One Multi-Language Quick Installation Guide

‹One CD-Rom (User’s guide)

If any item is found missing or damaged, please contact your local reseller for replacement.

Setup

The setup of the Wireless Access Point can be performed using the following steps:

‹Locate an optimum location for the Wireless LAN Access Point (AP). The best place for your AP is usually the center of your wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile stations.

‹Visually inspect the Ethernet RJ45 port connector and make sure that it is fully plugged in to the system’s Ethernet switch/hub port.

‹Fix the direction of the antennas. Try to place the AP in a position that can best cover your wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance will be. The antenna’s position enhances the receiving sensitivity.

‹Visually inspect if the Power Adapter was fully plugged to the device power jack.
