Deploying the ProSafe Wireless Access Point

Now that you have completed the setup steps, you can deploy the access point in your 
network. If necessary, you can now reconfigure the computer you used in Step1 

Before mounting the WNAP320 in a high location, first set up and test the 
WNAP320 to verify wireless network connectivity.

Disconnect the access point from the PC, and position it where it will be deployed. The 

best location is elevated, such as on a wall or ceiling or on the top of a cubicle, at the 

center of your wireless coverage area, and within line of sight of all the mobile devices.

Connect an Ethernet cable from your access point to a LAN port on your router, switch, or 

hub. 

By default, access point is set with the DHCP client disabled. If your 

network uses dynamic IP addresses, you must change this setting. 
To connect to the access point after the DHCP server on your 
network assigns it a new IP address, enter the product family name 
in your Web browser. The default product family name is 
netgearxxxxxx

, where xxxxxx represents the last 6 bytes of the 

MAC address. The default name is printed on the bottom label of the 
access point.

If you are not using PoE, connect the power adapter to the wireless access point, and plug 

the power adapter into a power outlet. The Power and LAN LEDs should be on, and the 

WLAN LED should blink.

Verifying Wireless Connectivity

Follow the instructions in the next sections to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. 
Once you have established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings 
appropriate to your needs (see 

17).

The default SSID for the 802.11b/g/n is NETGEAR-11g. The SSID of any wireless access 
adapters must match the SSID configured in the ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point 
WNAP320. If they do not match, no wireless connection will be made.
