Chapter 1 Introduction 1: Introduction The Compex WPE54G is a wireless access point that is interoperable with all standard based 802.11b and 802.11g wireless devices. The Compex WPE54G is a compact and high-performance access point that is designed with support for high security features like enhanced Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA1/2-PSK, WPA1/2-EAP), IEEE 802.1x Authentication (TLS, TLLS, PEAP, EAP-SIM) and 64-bit or 128-bit Wired Equivalent Privacy.
Chapter 1 Introduction Packaging Content Actual product appearance may slightly differ depending on the hardware version.
Chapter 2 Let’s Get Going - Hardware Setup 2: Let’s Get Going-Hardware Setup Use the RJ45 cable to connect the Ethernet port of the WPE54G to your PC. Once you have finished configuring your WPE54G, you can connect the Ethernet cable to your network device, such as to a switch or hub. Next, attach the power adapter supplied in the packaging to the main power supply and connect its power plug into the DC jack of the WPE54G.
Chapter 3 Access to Web-based Interface 3: Access to Web-based Interface There are two methods to access to the Web-based interface of Compex WPE54G: 1. Through the Compex Utility – uConfig You can access to the web-based interface directly without having to change the IP address of your PC. 2. Through your web browser First, you will need to assign an IP address to your PC, such as 192.168.168.X, where X can be any value from 2 to 254, so that it is in the same subnet as Compex WPE54G.
Chapter 3 Access to Web-based Interface Select Compex WPE54G in the Compex Products List section and click on Open Web button. This screen prompts you not to exit your uConfig program while accessing to your web-based interface, or else you will fail to connect to your device. Click on the OK button to proceed.
Chapter 3 Access to Web-based Interface At the authentication page, click on the Log On! button to enter the main configuration page. You will then reach the home page of Compex WPE54G’s web-based interface. Note: Refer to User’s Manual for instructions on how to configure Compex WPE54G for wireless access.
Chapter 3 Access to Web-based Interface Access to the Web interface manually If you wish to access to the web interface manually, you need to configure the TCP/IP of your PC. Refer to Chapter 4 for detail. If you have forgotten the IP address of your router, do not worry! Compex has designed another utility program NpFind that helps you verify the IP address of your Compex product. You can also find this utility in the Product CD.
Chapter 4 TCP/IP Configuration 4: TCP/IP Configuration Once the hardware has been set up, you need to assign an IP address to your PC so that it will be in the same subnet as Compex WPE54G. By default, Compex WPE54G’s IP address is 192.168.168.1; and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0. You need to configure your PC’s IP address to 192.168.168.X; and its subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, where X can be any number from 2 to 254 excluding 1.
Chapter 4 Select the radio button Specify an IP address. TCP/IP Configuration for Enter the IP Address and Subnet Mask as 192.168.168.X and 255.255.255.0, where X can be any number from 2 to 254, except for 1. In this example, we are using 192.168.168.160 as the static IP Address. In order to check if the IP address has been assigned correctly to your PC, simply go to the Start menu, select Run, and enter the command winipcfg.
Chapter 4 TCP/IP Configuration For Windows XP/2000 Go to your desktop, click on My Network Places icon and select Properties. Go to your network adapter icon, right click and select to Properties. Highlight Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and click on Properties button.
Chapter 4 TCP/IP Configuration Select the radio button for Use the following IP address. Enter the IP Address and Subnet Mask as 192.168.168.X and 255.255.255.0, where X can be any number from 2 to 254, except for 1. In this example, we are using 192.168.168.160 as the static IP Address. Click on OK to close all windows. Next, in order to check if the IP address has been correctly assigned to your PC, go to Start menu, Accessories, select Command Prompt and type the command ipconfig/all.
