Removing the Back Cover

To remove the access point’s back cover, follow these steps:

Step 1 Remove all cables and power connections from the access point.

Step 2 Remove all static-generating items from the work area, such as plastic material, styrofoam cups, and other similar items.

Step 3 Place the access point and the new 2.4-GHz radio (in its antistatic bag) on an antistatic work surface.

Step 4 Discharge any static buildup on your body by touching a grounded surface (antistatic work surface) before proceeding.

Step 5 Position the access point so that the back cover is facing up.

Caution The internal access point components and the 2.4-GHz radio can be damaged by ESD from improper handling.

Step 6 Remove the back-cover retaining screw using a Philips screwdriver (see Figure 4-1).
