2. Install Hardware

English

2. Plug the access point into an

available power outlet.

Note: Locate an optimum location for the Access Point. The best place for the

Access Point is usually at the center of your wireless network.

Note: DO NOT plug the TPL-210AP into a power strip or surge protector.

1. Connect the 2dBi Detachable

Antenna.

3. Verify that the following panel lights

are on: Power and Wireless.

English

3. Configure the Access Point

Note: It is recommended that you configure the Access Point from a computer

connected to a Powerline Ethernet Bridge (e.g. TPE-202E). Before the Access

Point can be configured, a Static IP address must be assigned on your

computer's network adapter in the subnet of 192.168.1.x. Since the Access

Point's default IP address is 192.168.1.200, make sure no other network

devices are assigned an IP address of 192.168.1.200. (Refer to the

Troubleshooting section on how to configure TCP/IP settings on your PC)

From a Powerline Computer

3. Enter User name and Password,

and then click OK. By default,

User name: admin

Password: admin

2. Open your web browser, type

http://192.168.1.200 in the

Address bar, and press Enter.

1. The default HomePlug Group

Name (Powerline network name) is

HomePlug. You must set your

Powerline bridge adapter's

Powerline network name to

HomePlug. Refer to your

Powerline bridge adapter's user

guide for instructions.

English

6. Enter a new password for your

Access Point, verify the new

password, and then click Next. (If a

new password is not entered, the

default password admin will be

used.

5. Click Next.

4. Click Wizard.

7. Enter a SSID for your Access

Point and then click Next.

English

Your configuration is now complete.

For detailed information regarding the TPL-210AP's configuration, please refer

to the Troubleshooting section, User's Guide CD-ROM, or Trendnet's website

Q3:

A3:

I specified the IP address http://192.168.1.200 in my Internet Browser's

Address Bar, but an error message says "The page cannot be displayed". How

can I get into the TPL-210AP's web configuration page?

First, check your hardware settings again by following the instructions in

section 2. Second, make sure the Power, Home Plug and Wireless lights are lit.

Third, make sure the TCP/IP settings are configured properly (see Q1). Fourth,

since the Access Point's default IP address is 192.168.1.200, make sure that no

other network devices are assigned an IP address of 192.168.1.200.

If my network's IP is different than the Access Point's range, what should I

do?

You should still configure the Access Point first. After all the settings are

applied, go to the Access Point's configuration page, click on IP setting and

change the IP address of the Access Point to match your network's IP.

Troubleshooting

Q1: How do I configure TCP/IP settings on my computer?

1. Go into the Control Panel and double-

click the Network Connections icon,

right-click the Local Area Connection

icon and then click Properties.

2. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and

then click Properties. Then click on

Use the following IP address, and

make sure you assign your network

adapter an IP address in the subnet of

192.168.1.x.

Q4:

Q5:

A5:

After I successfully configured the Access Point to meet my network settings,

I can not connect to my network using wireless computers.

First, if you are connecting to an existing Powerline network, the Powerline

network name one the Access Point must match that of the Powerline network. To

configure the Powerline network name, log on to the Access Point's browser

configuration by typing in http://192.168.1.200 in the address bar of your browser.

Click HomePlug. Change the HomePlug Group name to match your network's

Powerline network name. The default HomePlug Group name is HomePlug.

Second, verify that the power outlet the TPL-210AP is plugged into is on the same

electrical power distribution and/or circuit breaker. Third, if you have a DHCP

server in your network, you need to go into TCP/IP settings again and re-select

"Obtain an IP address automatically" to allow the PC to regain an IP address from

your DHCP server.

All the settings are correct, but I can not make a wireless connection to the

Access Point.

First, double check that the Wireless light on the Access Point is lit. Second,

power cycle the Access Point. Disconnect the Access Point from the power outlet,

wait 15 seconds, then plug the Access Point back into the power outlet. Third,

contact the manufacturer of your wireless network adapter. Make sure the

wireless network adapter is configured with the proper SSID. The default SSID of

the Access Point is Powerline.

If you still encounter problems or have any questions regarding the TPL-210AP, please

contact TRENDnet's Technical Support Department.
