The instructions below will help you to configure the following basic settings

for the access point to reload.

When you change your access point’s IP address, you need to use

the new IP address to access the browser based configuration

interface instead of the default IP 192.168.2.2.

3. To change the SSID of your access point’s 2.4GHz wireless network(s), go

to “Wireless Setting” > “2.4GHz 11bgn” > “Basic”. Enter the new SSID for

your 2.4GHz wireless network in the “SSID1” field and click “Apply”.

labelled “Enable SSID number” and select how many SSIDs you

require. Then enter a new SSID in the corresponding numbered

fields below, before clicking “Apply”.

network(s), go to “Wireless Setting” > “2.4GHz 11bgn” > “Security”. Select

configuration interface, go to “Management” > “Admin”.

7. Complete the “Administrator Name” and “Administrator Password” fields

and click “Apply”.

“Date and Time”.

9. Set the correct time and time zone for your access point using the drop

down menus. The access point also supports NTP (Network Time Protocol)

so alternatively you can enter the host name or IP address of a time server.

Click “Apply” when you are finished.

You can use the “Acquire Current Time from your PC” button if

you wish to set the access point to the same time as your PC.

point to a router or PoE switch.
