Initial Configuration Using the Built-In Web Pages
Wired Connection to Access the Configuration Web Page
After the Wi-Fi AP/Bridge has been powered on for at least 30 seconds, connect the supplied
crossover Ethernet cable between your computer’s network interface card (NIC) and the Wi-Fi
AP/Bridge’s Ethernet port.

Step 1. Turn on your computer.
Step 2. If APIPA is being used to assign an IP address for the NIC, wait for the DHCP server
search to time-out and issue an address to the interface (about one minute). If APIPA is
not being used, assign a static IP address of 169.254.20.2 to your NIC.
Step 3. Launch a web browser in your computer. All popular browsers are supported. The
minimum recommended display resolution is 800 x 600 pixels. The webpages are
configured using a secure socket layer (SSL) connection.
Step 4. Enter the following Wi-Fi AP/Bridge IP address in the Address/Location field in your
browser: https://169.254.20.1. A “Security Alert” may be displayed (shown below),
asking if you want to proceed with connecting to the Wi-Fi AP/Bridge. Select “Yes”.
