Chapter 4 Client Mode

4.4 Setting your WAP3205 v2 to Client Mode

1To use your WAP3205 v2 as a wireless client, see Section 2.1.1.1 on page 16.

2Connect your computer to the LAN port of the WAP3205 v2.

3The default IP address of the WAP3205 v2 is “192.168.1.2”. In this case, your computer must have an IP address in the range between “192.168.1.3” and “192.168.1.254”.

4Click Start > Run on your computer in Windows. Type “cmd” in the dialog box. Enter “ipconfig” to show your computer’s IP address. If your computer’s IP address is not in the correct range then see Appendix C on page 139 for information on changing your computer’s IP address.

5After you’ve set your computer’s IP address, open a web browser such as Internet Explorer and type “http://192.168.1.2” as the web address in your web browser.

6Enter “1234” (default) as the password and click Login.

7Type a new password and retype it to confirm, then click Apply. Otherwise, click Ignore.

Note: You have to log in to the Web Configurator again when you change modes. As soon as you do, your WAP3205 v2 is already in Client mode.

Note: The client mode IP address is always the same as the access point mode IP address. If you changed the IP address of your WAP3205 v2 while in access point mode, use this IP address in client mode.
