3.1 Before Configuration
This section describes the configuration required by LAN-attached PCs that communicate with the I-Fly Wireless Access Point, either to configure the device or for network access. These PCs must have an Ethernet interface installed properly, be connected to the AP either directly or through an external repeater hub, and have TCP/IP installed and configured to obtain an IP address through a DHCP server or a fixed IP address that must be in the same subnet of the AP. The default IP address of the ADSL Firewall AP is 192.168.1.1 and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. The best and easy way is to configure the PC to get an IP address from the AP. Also make sure you have UNINSTALLED any kind of software firewall that can cause problems while accessing the 192.168.1.1 IP address of the AP.
Please follow the steps below for PC’s network environment installation. First of all, please check your PC’s network components. The TCP/IP protocol stack and Ethernet network adapter must be installed.
Any TCP/IP capable workstation can be used to communicate with or through the AP. To configure other types of workstations, please consult the manufacturer’s documentation.
