Q. How do I access the Setup page of the WAP4400N?
A. Complete these steps:
- Connect your computer to the Ethernet port of the WAP4400N by using a "Straight through" Ethernet cable.
Note: This type of cable will be used most of the time and can be used to:
Connect a computer to a switch/hub's normal port
Connect a computer to a cable/DSL modem's LAN port
Connect a router's WAN port to a cable/DSL modem's LAN port
Connect a router's LAN port to a switch/hub's uplink port (normally used for expanding network)
Connect 2 switches/hubs with one of the switch/hub using an uplink port and the other one using normal port
- Assign a Static IP address and Subnet Mask on the computer. You only need the IP address and Subnet Mask. Use "192.168.1.10" for the IP address and "255.255.255.0" for the Subnet Mask, there is no need for the Default Gateway and DNS.
- Access the Setup page of the WAP4400N, http://192.168.1.245. A pop-up box should appear asking for the Username and Password. Type "admin" for both. If the pop-up box does not appear, reset the WAP4400N.
Note: If you are using Windows XP Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Internet Explorer, you may see a "Pop-up blocked" message in your browser Information Bar. Click the bar and select Temporarily Allow Pop-ups, then try again.
- Once you are on the Setup page, you may change the IP Settings to DHCP or Static IP. Make sure that it is in the same range as your network. The WAP4400N is set to Static IP by default.
