NETGEAR WG602v4 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point Start Here Please refer to the online Reference Manual for instructions on advanced configuration options. A link to the NETGEAR WG602v4 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point Reference Manual is on the Resource CD. Estimated Completion Time: 30 minutes. Tip: Before mounting the WG602v4 in a high location, first set up and test the WG602v4 to verify wireless network connectivity. First, Set Up the WG602v4 1. CONNECT THE WIRELESS ACCESS POINT TO YOUR COMPUTER AND MODEM a. Unpack the box and verify the contents. b. 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. c. Connect an Ethernet cable from the WG602v4 to the PC (point A). d. Securely insert the other end of the cable into the WG602v4 Ethernet port (point B). e. Connect the Power Adapter from the WG602v4 to an AC power outlet. Note: Only connect your wireless access point using the power supply provided with the WG602v4. .. .................. ................ .. .......................... .............. ................ A B f. Turn on your computer and verify the LED behavior on the front of the wireless access point. • Power. The power light should be lit. If the power light is not lit, check the connections and to see if the power outlet is controlled by a wall switch that is turned off. • Ethernet. The Ethernet (LAN) light on the WG602v4 should be lit (amber for a 10 Mbps connection and green for a 100 Mbps connection). If not, make sure the Ethernet cable is securely attached at both ends. • WLAN. The wireless light should be lit. 2. CONFIGURE LAN AND WIRELESS ACCESS a. Configure the WG602v4 Ethernet port for LAN access. Connect to the WG602v4 by opening your browser and entering 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 NETGEAR WG602v4 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point user interface will display. c. Under Setup on the main menu, select IP Settings and configure the IP Settings for your network. d. Select Wireless Settings under Setup on the main menu and configure the wireless access settings. See the online help or the online Reference Manual for full instructions. Note: If you change the default subnet of the LAN IP address, you will be disconnected from the WG602v4 Access Point user interface. To reconnect, reconfigure your computer with a static IP address within the new LAN IP subnet. Tip: Before you deploy your wireless access point, reserve an IP address (based on the WG602v4’s MAC address) on the DHCP server. That way, you can configure the wireless access point with a static IP address which you can always use to log in to make future configuration changes. 3. TEST WIRELESS CONNECTIVITY Using a PC with a wireless adapter configured according to the wireless settings you just set in the WG602v4 to establish a wireless connection to the WG602v4. Deploy the WG602v4 Now that you have finished the setup steps, you are ready to deploy the WG602v4 in your network. If needed, you can now reconfigure the PC you used in step 1 back to its original TCP/IP settings. 1. Disconnect the WG602v4 and position it where you will deploy it. The best location is elevated, such as wall mounted or on the top of a cubicle, at the center of your wireless coverage area, and within line of sight of all the mobile devices. 2. Position the antenna. Vertical positioning provides best side-to-side coverage. Horizontal positioning provides best top-to-bottom coverage. 3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your WG602v4 Access Point to a LAN port on your router, switch, or hub. 4. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter in to a power outlet. The PWR, LAN, and WLAN lights should light up. Now, Verify Wireless Connectivity Using a computer with an 802.11g or 802.11b wireless adapter, verify connectivity by using a browser such as Netscape® or Internet Explorer to connect to the Internet, or check for file and printer access on your network. Note: If you cannot connect, see to Troubleshooting Tips in this guide or the online Reference Manual. (A link to the Reference Manual is on the Resource CD.) Troubleshooting Tips Here are some tips for correcting simple problems you may have. No lights are lit on the access point. The access point has no power. • Make sure the power cord is connected to the access point and plugged in to a working power outlet or power strip. • Make sure you are using the correct NETGEAR power adapter supplied with your access point. The Ethernet light is not lit. There is a hardware connection problem. • Make sure the cable connectors are securely plugged in at the access point and the network device (hub, switch, or router). • Make sure the connected...
