14.5Connecting the NBG4615 (in Universal Repeater Mode) to an AP or Wireless Router

If you have an access point or wireless router with Internet access deployed in your network already, and you want to have wireless clients connect to the existing AP or wireless router through the NBG4615, set the NBG4615 to Universal Repeater mode and then associate the NBG4615 with the AP or wireless router. The NBG4615 must be within the transmission range of the AP or wireless router.

1Connect your computer to the LAN port of the NBG4615 using an Ethernet cable.

2The default IP address of the NBG4615 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”.

3Click 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 D on page 259 for information on changing your computer’s IP address.

4After 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.

5Enter “1234” (default) as the password and click Login.

6Type a new password and retype it to confirm, then click Apply. Otherwise, click Ignore.
