Now you need to configure your Computer to access the Access Point, a Static IP Address is recommended since the Router will only give you a 192.168.2…. IP Address and therefore you will not

have access to it.

Configure your IP to be in the Range of the Access Point with an IP of 192.168.0.250 and put the IP of the Access Point 192.168.0.254 as the Default Gateway.

Click ‘OK’ and ‘OK’ again and you will be back in the Network Connections Window.

Now open Internet Explorer and type the IP Address of the Access Point (192.168.0.254). You should now be presented with this screen, which is the standard Web Interface screen for the Access Point.

Note If you want to revert to Router Mode you need to click on ‘Use As Access Point’ and disable. Once the changes have been applied, you will need to revert your IP address to ‘Obtain An IP Address Automatically’.
