3 CONNECTION Network 4 LAN LAN+DC BASIC IP NETWORKING IP = Internet Protocol IP stands for Internet Protocol. In an IP network, every device has a unique IP Address (For example: 192.168.1.35) to identify itself. There are two ways of assigning an IP address to a PC or AP: Static and Automatic (DHCP). Static IP addresses are keyed-in manually, while Dynamic IP’s are distributed by a DHCP Server.
Dynamic IP Address A dynamic IP address is one that is automatically assigned to a PC. These IP addresses are “dynamic” because they are only temporarily leased to the PC when it connects to the network. This is the most convenient and common way of managing IP addresses in a network. The Server that manages this pool of IP addresses is called the DHCP Server. The product has a DHCP Server built-in to simplify the network management.
Signal Strength Radio signals drop in power over a distance. Even if all the settings are correct, low signal strength makes association impossible. The usable distance between the AP and client can range from a few meters indoor to a few km. When setting up the client, make sure that you: Keep at a distance between the AP and the clients. Make sure that the WLAN signals do not have to pass through too many concrete walls and metal structures to reach the client.
