The Web Configurator
3.1  Overview
This chapter describes how to access the WAP5805 Web Configurator and provides an overview of 
its screens.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy setup and 
management of the WAP5805 via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Firefox 
2.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
• Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in 
Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
• JavaScripts (enabled by default).
• Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter (
) to see how to make sure these 
functions are allowed in Internet Explorer.
