Connect the Access Point to Your Router or Network
The access point functions as a WiFi access point and LAN switch for Internet access but does not provide
routing services such as NAT and a DHCP server. Do not directly connect the access point to your DSL or
cable modem. Instead, connect the access point to your router or to a switch or hub that is connected to a
DHCP server in your network. Basically, the access point functions as a bridge between your router or DHCP
server and the access point’s LAN and WiFi clients.
The following sections describe how you can connect the access point to your router or network:
• Connect the Access Point to Your Router on page 12
• Connect the Access Point to a Network With a DHCP Server on page 14
• Connect the Access Point With a Static IP Address to Your Network on page 16
To set up your access point, follow the procedure in one of these sections.
Connect the Access Point to Your Router
The easiest way to set up and start using the access point is to connect it to a router.
By default, the DHCP client of the access point is disabled, so the access point does not receive an IP
address from the router’s DHCP server and you can use the default access point IP address to log in to the
access point web management interface. However, because the access point functions as a bridge between
your router and the access point’s LAN and WiFi clients, these clients do receive an IP address from the
router.
After setup, if you want to access the access point web management interface (also referred to as user
interface) to change the settings, you must use the default access point IP address 192.168.0.100.
If you do want the access point to receive an IP address from the router’s DHCP
server, you must enable the access point’s DHCP client (see Connect the Access
Point to a Network With a DHCP Server on page 14) and log in to the access point
web management interface over the IP address that the DHCP server assigns to the
access point.
