NOTE:
One connector of the Ethernet cable must be plugged into the LAN/Config Ethernet jack of
the AP for configuration.
2.1.2. Changing the TCP/IP Settings of the Managing Com-
puter
Use the Windows Network Control Panel Applet to change the TCP/IP settings of the managing
computer, so that the IP address of the computer and the IP address of the AP are in the same IP sub-
net. Set the IP address of the computer to 192.168.0.xxx (the default IP address of an AP is
192.168.0.1) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

NOTE:
For some versions of Windows, the computer needs to be restarted for the changes of TCP/IP
settings to take effect.
2.2. Configuring the AP
After the IP addressing issue is resolved, launch a Web browser on the managing computer. Then, go

If you are using the browser, Opera (from Opera Software), to configure an AP, click the
menu item File, click Preferences..., click File types, and edit the MIME type, text/html, to add a
file extension ".sht" so that Opera can work properly with the Web management pages of the AP.
