attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use AMX as their assigned
SSID value.
 One of the most common problems associated with connection to a WAP arise because the SSID
was not entered properly. You must maintain the same case when entering the SSID information.
ABC is not the same as Abc.

 Open System Authentication allows any device to join the network if the panel’s SSID matches
the WAP’s SSID.
9. Toggle the Encryption field until it reads Clear Text (default).
10. Verify the fields in the IP Settings section have been properly configured. Refer to the Step 1: Configuring

All NXA-WAP200Gs are factory-shipped as an unsecured WAP with no WEP
encryption. The WAP200G initial Status page will display the status of both the WEP
and WPA (both disabled).
The signal strength field should provide some descriptive text regarding the strength
of the connection to a Wireless Access Point. If there is no signal or no IP Address
displayed; configuration of your network could be required.
