When you first start the Access

Enter the IP Address—192.168.1.250 is the default setting—and Password—pub-

The Access Point’s SNMP
Configuration Utility
The Access Point SNMP Configuration Utility is provided to allow you further
customization of the Wireless Network Access Point and your wireless network
through your Ethernet or wireless connection. It is strongly recommended that you
use your wireless connection to use the SNMP Configuration Utility.
If you wish to use the SNMP Configuration Utility to configure the Access
Point, you must assign a temporary IP address to your computer.
You may need to assign the PC a temporary IP address to gain access to the
Access Point.
1. This can be done at Start, Settings, Control Panel, then Network.
2. Click on the network adapter associated with the TCP/IP and click
Properties.
3. Note your current settings in order to restore your TCP/IP configuration.
4. Select Specify an IP address and enter the following values:
IP - 192.168.1.50, Subnet Mask- 255.255.255.0
5. Click OK and click OK again in the Network window.
6. Restart the computer when asked.
Make sure that you enter an IP address for the Access Point in order to access
it at a later time. Once you have completed the IP Address Configuration, you
can set the PC back to its previous settings. For example, to “Obtain an IP
Address automatically.”

Linux/Unix Users: Though these operating systems are not supported by
Linksys, the Wireless Access Point should work in these environments. The
WAP11 can be configured under these operating systems using SNMP. A
configurable Management Information Base file (MIB) named
AT76C510.MIB can be found on the Setup Utility CD. This file is for
Linux/Unix users only, and is not necessary for any Windows installation.
