When installing the TPL-310AP for the first time, it required for you to configure the device from a wired computer. Since the default IP address of the TPL-310AP is 192.168.10.100, please make sure to assign an IP address to the TPL-310AP that is NOT assigned to any other devices on your net- work. If your network IP address range is NOT 192.168.10.x, then the TPL-310AP IP address should be assigned with your network’s IP address range (i.e. 192.168.1.x, 192.168.2.x, 192.168.0.x) This chapter covers the typical configuration of the TPL-310AP in Access Point (AP) mode using the Setup Wizard. If you are an experienced user, other web configuration settings can be referenced in Chapter 3. Once the initial setup is complete, Chapter 4 will cover creating a powerline network with one additional po- werline adapter, or adding the TPL-310AP to existing powerline network.
