WN804 Access Point

2. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the computer to the access point.

both in lowercase letters.

The web management interface of the access point displays.

Note: When you have finished changing the access point settings, you can

reconfigure this computer back to its original TCP/IP settings.

Position the Access Point

The access point lets you access your network from anywhere within the operating range of

your wireless network. However, the operating distance or range of your wireless connection

can vary significantly depending on the physical placement of your access point. For

example, the thickness and number of walls the wireless signal passes through can limit the

range. For best results, place your access point:

• Near the center of the area where your computers and other devices operate, and

preferably within line of sight to your wireless devices.

• So it is accessible to an

AC power outlet and near Ethernet cables for wired computers.

• In an elevated location such as a high shelf, keeping the number of walls and ceilings

between the access point and your other devices to a minimum.
