Start Here
Follow these instructions to set up your wireless PC card. Before proceeding with the
WNDAP350 installation, familiarize yourself with the contents of the Resource CD. Please
refer to the Reference Manual on your Resource CD for instructions on advanced
configuration options.
Estimated Completion Time: 30 minutes.
Tip: Before mounting the WNDAP350 in a high location, first set up and test the
WNDAP350 to verify wireless network connectivity.
First, Verify the Package Contents
Unpack the box and verify the contents:
ProSafe Dual Band Wireless-N Access Point WNDAP350
Straight through Category 5 Ethernet cable
Power adapter and cord (12V, 1A)
Wall mount kit
Installation Guide
Resource CD which includes Warranty information, GPL license information, and a link
to the Reference Manual
Then, Set Up the WNDAP350
1. Connect the wireless access point to your computer.
a. Prepare a PC with an Ethernet adapter. If this PC is already part of your network,
record its TCP/IP configuration settings. Configure the PC with a static IP address
of 192.168.0.210 and 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask.
b. Connect an Ethernet cable from the
WNDAP350 to the PC (point A in
the illustration).
c. Securely insert the other end of the
cable into the WNDAP350 Ethernet
port (point B in the illustration).
d. Connect the power adapter to the
WNDAP350 and verify the
following:
Power/Test. The Power/Test
light blinks when the
WNDAP350 is first turned on. After a few seconds it should stay lit (steady
green). If after 30 seconds the Power/Test light is not lit or is still blinking,
check the connections and check to see if the power outlet is controlled by a
wall switch that is turned off.
LAN. There are two LAN LEDs. The 10/100/1000 LED indicates LAN
speeds, green for 1000 Mbps, amber for 100Mbps, and no light for 10Mbps.
The LINK/ACT LED blinks if there is activity and is off when there is no
activity.
WLAN. The 2.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz indicators should be lit or blinking.
2. Configure LAN and Wireless Access
a. From your PC, configure the WNDAP350 Ethernet port for LAN access. Connect
to the WNDAP350 by opening your browser and entering
http://192.168.0.237 in the address field.
A login window will display.
b. When prompted, enter admin for the
user name and password for the
password, both in lower case letters.
The WNDAP350 user interface will
display
c. Select Configuration > System >
Basic > General from the menu and
configure the Access Point Name and select the appropriate Country/Region of
operation from the pull-down menu.

d. Select Configuration > IP > IP Settings from the menu and configure the IP
settings for your network.
Tip: If you use DHCP, reserve an IP address (based on the access point’s MAC
address) on the DHCP server. You can then always use that address to login to the
access point.
e. Select Configuration > Wireless > Basic > Wireless Settings from the menu and
configure the wireless interface for wireless access. There are two wireless settings
tabs, one for the 2.4 GHz band and one for the 5 GHz band. You can use one or
both bands. For each band that you use, be sure to check the Turn Radio On setting.
f. Select Configuration > Security > Profile Settings from the menu and configure
Security Profiles for your network.
See the online help or the Reference Manual for full instructions. (A link to the
online Reference Manual is on your Resource CD.)
3. Test Wireless Connectivity
Using a PC with a wireless adapter verify that you can establish a wireless connection
to the WNDAP350.
Now that you have finished the setup, you are ready to deploy the WNDAP350 in your
network. If needed, you can now reconfigure the PC you used in step 1 back to its
original TCP/IP settings.
Now, Deploy the WNDAP350
1. Disconnect the WNDAP350 and position it where you will deploy it. The best location
is elevated such as wall or ceiling mounted, at the center of your wireless coverage area,
and within line of sight of all the mobile devices.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from your WNDAP350 Access Point to a LAN port on your
router, switch, or hub.
3. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter in to
a power outlet. The Power/Test and LAN LEDs should light up.
Tip: The WNDAP350 supports Power Over Ethernet (PoE). If you have a switch that
provides PoE, you will not need to use the power adapter to power the WNDAP350.
This can be especially convenient when the WNDAP350 is installed in a high location
far away from a power outlet.
