The rear panel contains the following contents (Viewed from left to

right in figure 2-2):

• Wireless antenna

• Reset button

• There are two ways to reset the AP’s factory defaults:

1) Use the Factory Defaults function on System Tools -> Factory De-

faults page in the AP’s Web-based Utility.

2) Use the Reset button: First, turn off the AP’s power. Second, press

and hold the default reset button then turn on the AP’s power,

until the system LED lights up (about 3 seconds). Last, release the

reset button and wait for the AP to reboot.

Note: Ensure the AP is powered on before it restarts completely.

3. Connecting the AP

3.1 System Requirements

• Broadband Internet Access Service (DSL/Cable/Ethernet)

• DSL/Cable Modem that has an RJ45 connector

• Ethernet broadband router

• TCP/IP protocol must be installed on each PC

• Web browser, such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later, Fire-

fox

• 802.11g or 802.11b-compliant devices, such as the KR.XU Wireless

Adapter

3.2 Installation Environment Requirements

of clear space on all sides of the AP

• Well ventilated (especially if it is in a closet)

• Operating temperature: 0°C~40°C (32°F~104°F)

• Operating Humidity: 10%~90%RH, Non-condensing

3.3 Connecting the AP

Figure 3.1 is an example of an infrastructure network incorporating the

Access Point. An Infrastructure network contains an access point or a

wireless router. For a typical connection of the AP, please do the fol-

lowing:

1. You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSL-sub-

scriber line into your home or office). Consult with your Cable or

DSL provider for proper installation of the Modem.

2. Connect the Cable or DSL Modem to a Router. Quickly install the

router.

3. Locate an optimum location for the AP. The best place is usually

near the center of the area in which your PC(s) will wirelessly con-

nect. The place must accord with the Installation Environment Re-

quirements.

4. Adjust the direction of the antenna. Normally, upright is a good

direction.

5. Connect the Ethernet Broadband Router to the Access Point AP.

Power on the AP.

6. If you are connecting a desktop PC or laptop to your network, in-

stall the Kraun Wireless Adapter on the PC.

4. TCP/IP Configuration

After connecting the Access Point AP into your network, you should con-

figure it. The default IP address of the Wireless Access Point 54MB Sin-

gle Port is 192.168.1.1, and the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.

These values can be seen from the LAN. They can be changed as you

desire, as an example we use the default values for description in this

guide.

Connect the local PCs to the LAN ports on the AP. There are then two

ways to configure the IP address for your PCs.

• Configure the IP address manually

1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC(s). If you need instructions

as to how to do this, please refer to “Appendix B: Configuring the

PCs.”

2) Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx

(“xxx” is from 2 to 254), Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0, and Gate-

way is 192.168.1.1 (The AP’s default IP address)

• Obtain an IP address automatically

1) Set up the TCP/IP Protocol in “Obtain an IP address automatically”

mode on your PC(s). If you need instructions as to how to do this,

please refer to Appendix B: “Configuring the PCs.”

2) Power off the AP and PC(s). Then turn on the AP, and restart the

PC(s). The built-in DHCP server will assign IP addresses for the

PC(s).

Now, you can run Ping command in the command prompt to verify the

network connection between your PC(s) and the AP. The following ex-

ample is in Windows 2000 OS.

Click ‘Start’->’Run’, type cmd in the text box and click Enter button, then

you will see a command prompt, and type ping 192.168.1.1, then press

Enter.
