NOTE
The access point’s IP address is optimally provided using DHCP. A zero config IP address can also
be derived if DHCP resources are unavailable. Using zero config, the last two octets in the IP address
are the decimal equivalent of the last two bytes in the access point’s hardcoded MAC address.
For example:
MAC address - 00:C0:23:00:F0:0A
Zero-config IP address - 169.254.240.10
To derive the access point’s IP address using its MAC address:
1. Open the Windows calculator be selecting Start > All Programs > Accessories > Calculator. This
menu path may vary slightly depending on your version of Windows.
2. With the Calculator displayed, select View > Scientific. Select the Hex radio button.
3. Enter a hex byte of the access point’s MAC address. For example, F0.
4. Select the Dec radio button. The calculator converts F0 into 240. Repeat this process for the
last access point MAC address octet.
Once obtained, point the Web browser to the access point’s IP address. The following login screen
displays:

5. Enter the default username admin in the Username field.
6. Enter the default password admin123 in the Password field.
7. Select the Login button to load the management interface.
If this is the first time the management interface has been accessed, the first screen to display will
prompt for a change of the default access point password. Then, a dialogue displays to start the
initial setup wizard. For more information on using the initial setup wizard see
