MaxR-3210 Wireless-N Access Point User Manual

v1.1, Dec 2009
3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your MaxR-3210 Wireless Access Point to a LAN port on
your router, switch, or hub.
4. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter in to a
power outlet. The PWR, LAN, and Wireless LAN lights and should light up.
Verifying Wireless Connectivity
Using a computer with an 802.11b/bg/ng wireless adapter with the correct wireless settings needed
to connect to the MaxR-3210 (SSID, WEP/WPA, MAC ACL, etc.), verify connectivity by using a
browser such as Mozilla Firefox or Internet Explorer to browse the Internet, or check for file and
printer access on your network.
The default SSID for the 802.11b/bg/ng wireless mode is ARADA_11g. The SSID of any wireless
access adapters must match the SSID configured in the MaxR-3210 Single Band Wireless-N
Access Point. If they do not match, no wireless connection will be made.
Logging In Using the Default IP Address
After you install the MaxR-3210, log in to the Access Point to configure the basic settings and the
wireless settings. The MaxR-3210 is set, by default, with the IP address of 192.168.0.237 with
DHCP disabled.
Note: By default, MaxR-3210 is set with the DHCP client disabled. If your network
uses dynamic IP addresses, you must change this setting. To connect to the
MaxR-3210 after the DHCP server on your network assigns it a new IP
address, enter the Access Point name into your Web browser. The default
Access Point name is aradaxxxxxx, where xxxxxx represents the last 6 bytes of
the MAC address. The default name is printed on the bottom label of the
MaxR-3210.
Note: If you are unable to connect, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting and Debugging.”
Note: The computer you are using to connect to the MaxR-3210 should be configured
with an IP address that starts with 192.168.0.x and a Subnet Mask of
255.255.255.0.
