Installation
Access Point Configuration
The access point can be configured by connecting a PC to its Ethernet port and accessing the web interface.
The default IP address of the access point is 192.168.1.240, with login user name “Admin” and default password “1988”.
Twisted-Pair Cable Assignments
For 10/100BASE-TX connections, a twisted-pair cable must have two pairs of wires. Each wire pair is identified by two different colors. For example, one wire might be green and the other, green with white stripes. Also, an RJ-45 connector must be attached to both ends of the cable.
Each wire pair must be attached to the RJ-45 connectors in a specific orientation. (See “Crossover Wiring” and “Crossover Wiring” for an explanation.)
DO NOT plug a phone jack connector into the RJ-45 port. Use only twisted-pair cables with RJ-45 connectors that conform with FCC standards.
The following figure illustrates how the pins on the RJ-45 connector are numbered. Be sure to hold the connectors in the same orientation when attaching the wires to the pins.

Straight-Through Wiring
If the twisted-pair cable is to join two ports and only one of the ports has an internal crossover (MDI-X), the two pairs of wires must be straight-through. FIG. 3 diagrams the RJ-45 pinouts and signals for the Ethernet RJ-45 connector and cable.
