Chapter 4 Configuration

Connect the R2 Extender to a Local Computer

If you are configuring the R2 Extender locally (without connecting its power injector to a wired

LAN), connect a PC to the power injector’s Ethernet port using a Category 5 Ethernet cable.

1.

Assign a static IP address to your PC which is in the same network segment with the R2

Extender. As the default IP address of this unit is 192.168.1.1, you may choose from

192.168.1.2 to 192.168.1.254.

2.

Test the link status between your PC and the R2 Extender. Start a command prompt and

execute a continuous ping command “ping 192.168.1.1 –t”. If ping to the wireless bridge is

successful (as shown below), open Internet browser and enter the bridge’s IP address in

the address filed and press Enter.
