DESCRIPTION

 

 

Access Point Name

The unique name represents the access point.

 

The default Access Point Name is located on

 

the bottom label of WAB102. You may modify

 

the default name with a unique name up to 15

 

characters long.

 

Default: netgearxxxxxx, where xxxxxxx

 

represents the last 6 digits of the WAB102 MAC

 

address.

IP Address

Default: 255.255.255.0

 

 

Default gateway

Specifies the default gateway IP address.

 

Default: 0.0.0.0

 

 

DHCP Client

The access point will get the IP address, subnet

 

mask and the default gateway automatically

 

from the DHCP server if the DHCP is enabled.

 

Default: Enable

 

 

If the WAB102 cannot locate a DHCP server upon powering up, it will default to the IP address of 192.168.0.226. If you are not sure of the IP address of the WAB102, restore the default IP address by pressing the Restore to Factory Default button located on the WAB102 back panel for at least 5 seconds. The WAB102 will pass the IP address from the DHCP server to the associated station if the DHCP client is enabled.
