Wireless Network Conguration

The video extender can operate in two wireless modes: Wireless Access Point

mode (AP) or Client Mode (STA).

• AP Mode (default): The video extender will act as a wireless access point (i.e.

wireless router) for other wireless enabled computers. This mode is useful if

there is no existing wireless network where the video extender will be used, or

you do not wish to have the video extender on your main network.

• Client Mode: The video extender will act as a regular wireless client and connect

to an existing wireless network. This mode is useful if there is an existing wireless

access point (i.e. wireless router) already setup or if the computers need Internet

access at the same time.

NOTE: The wireless AP must have DHCP enabled.

To set the video extender into Client mode:

1. By default, the wireless video extender will be set to AP Mode. Check your

computer’s wireless network settings for the network called“WIFI2HD2”.

2. Connect to the WIFI2HD2 network. No encryption/security should be

enabled yet.

3. Once connected, run the PC2TV application from the desktop icon.

4. Open the “Setting”menu and then click on the Conguration button.

Instruction Manual 6

5. From the Conguration window, click on the “STA Mode” tab then click the

“Enable” option. Enter the required information for connecting to your existing

wireless network (i.e. SSID, encryption type and network key). Click the SAVE

button once complete.

NOTE: Client/STA mode does not support static IP addresses. The wireless AP

must have DHCP enabled.

OPTIONAL: If connecting multiple wireless video adapters to this network, be

sure to set a unique Device Name for each one for easy identication under the

“Device” tab.

6. Restart the wireless video adapter by unplugging and reconnecting the power.

desktop to the remote display.
