WAP5705 User’s Guide

I don’t know the IP address of my WAP5705.

The default IP address of the WAP5705 in access point mode is 192.168.1.2 and the default IP 
address of the WAP5705 in client mode is 192.168.1.10.

If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, 

• and your WAP5705 is a DHCP client, you can find your IP address from the DHCP server. This 

information is only available from the DHCP server which allocates IP addresses on your network. 
Find this information directly from the DHCP server or contact your system administrator for 
more information.

• reset your WAP5705 to change all settings back to their default. This means your current settings 

are lost. See 

 in the Troubleshooting for information on resetting your 

WAP5705. 

I forgot the password.

The default password is 1234.

If this does not work, you have to reset the device to its factory defaults. See 

.

I cannot see or access the Login screen in the Web Configurator.

Make sure you are using the correct IP address.

• The default IP address of the WAP5705 in access point mode is 192.168.1.2 and the default 

IP address of the WAP5705 in client mode is 192.168.1.10.

• If you changed the IP address (

), use the new IP address.

• If you changed the IP address and have forgotten it, see the troubleshooting suggestions for 

Check the hardware connections, and make sure the LEDs are behaving as expected. See the Quick 
Start Guide. 

Make sure your Internet browser does not block pop-up windows and has JavaScripts and Java 
enabled. See your browser help.

Make sure your computer is in the same subnet as the WAP5705. (If you know that there are 
routers between your computer and the WAP5705, skip this step.)

• If there is a DHCP server on your network, make sure your computer is using a dynamic IP 

address. See
