Installation and Configuration

Using a computer with an 802.11b or 802.11g wireless adapter with the correct wireless settings 
needed to connect to the WG602v4 (SSID, MAC ACL, WEP, WPA, etc.), verify connectivity by 
using a browser such as Netscape or Internet Explorer to browse the Internet, or check for file and 
printer access on your network. If you cannot connect, see 

.

By default, the WG602v4 is set with the DHCP client enabled so that your router will assign it a 
dynamic IP address.

 

There are two methods to connect to the WG602v4 after the DHCP server on 

your network assigns it a new IP address. 

•

If your wireless access point is to be deployed on a local network, you can enter the NetBIOS 
wireless access point name into your Web browser (see 

). The default wireless access point name is netgearxxxxxx, where xxxxxx 

represents the last 6 bytes of the MAC address. The MAC address is printed on the bottom 
label of the WG602v4. (Using the NetBIOS naming convention to access your wireless access 
point across several network segments is known to be unreliable.)

•

Reserve an IP address (based on the WG602v4’s MAC address) on your router or DHCP 
server. That way, if your wireless access point is deployed across several segments, you can 
configure it with a static IP address which you can always use to log in to make future 
configuration changes.

Before installing the NETGEAR WG602v4 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point, you should make 
sure that your Ethernet network is up and working. You will be connecting the wireless access 
point to the Ethernet network so that computers with 802.11b or 802.11g wireless adapters will be 
able to communicate with computers on the Ethernet network.

To deploy your wireless access point:

1. Disconnect the WG602v4 and position it where you will deploy it. The best location is 

elevated at the center of your wireless coverage area.

2. Lift the antenna side so that it is vertical.

3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your Wireless AP to a LAN port on your router, switch, or 

hub. 

4. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter into a 

power outlet. The power, LAN, and wireless lights and should light up.
