Hardware Installation
Desktop Installation
Connect the 54Mbps 802.11g Wireless Access Point to a hub (in Bridge mode) or
a PC with a UTP Ethernet cable. The cross-over cable must be used when
connecting the Access Point directly to a PC.
Power On
Connect the power adapter to the power socket on the 54Mbps 802.11g Wireless
Access Point. Connect the other end of the power pack into an appropriate
electrical outlet.
Note 1: Use of a power adapter other than the one supplied with the 54Mbps
802.11g Wireless Access Point may result in damage to the product.
Side Panel
The button on the Access Point side panel labeled “DEFAULT” enables the user
to restore the 54Mbps Wireless LAN Access Point to its default setting. This
may be used to reset the password to the default, as well as all other settings.
To restore the Access Point default settings, press the “DEFAULT” button on the
side panel of the Wireless Access Point for 10 seconds, then release the button
and wait for the system to reboot. The rebooting process will last approximately
30 seconds. Upon completion, the 54Mbps 802.11g Wireless Access Point
default settings will be restored and the Access Point can be configured again
with the Web-based Configuration Utility.

Web-based Configuration
The 54Mbps 802.11g Wireless Access Point allows configuration through a
Web-based Configuration Utility. The following instructions will complete the
installation of the Wireless Access Point.
Accessing the Web-based Configuration Utility
1. Connect a computer to the Access Point either through wireless or wired
connection. Set a fixed IP address, within the range of 192.168.1.X to the
computer, where X cannot be 254. When attempting to use a wireless
connection, configure the computer advanced options as:
SSID: default
WEP: disable
2. Activate the web browser and enter in the IP address of the AP in the Address
or location field and press Enter. The default value of the Access Point is
192.168.1.254.
3. Follow the on-screen instructions to enter the system password then press
Enter. The default password is “private”.

System Configuration
The Web-based Configuration Utility provides 3 items to monitor and configure
the Wireless Access Point: Configuration, Install Wizard and Status. These
core options are essential to enable the Access Point to work properly.

5
3.1 Local Area Network (LAN) Settings:
Three options are provided for the Local Area Network setup:
• Local Area Network
• External DHCP
• Internal DHCP
If an external DHCP server will be used, select Dynamic for the Primary Address
Selection. Otherwise, set the Primary Address Selection to Static IP.
The third choice, internal DHCP server, is available under the Static IP option.
Enter the setting on the DHCP server page and enable the default DHCP server.
Once DHCP is enabled, set the IP address for Static IP in the range of the DHCP
server where the default DHCP server is usually enabled. Click the Apply
button to save the new configuration.

3.2 Wireless Settings
The wireless settings will impact the coverage and the performance of the
Wireless Access Point. The Access Point can be operated in three different
bandwidth scenarios:
• G-only (High rate 54Mbps)
• B-only (Low rate 11Mbps )
• Mixed (both below 54M and 11Mbps).
To change the bandwidth setting, click on the change policy… link and select
the appropriate radio policy. Click the OK button to save the new configuration.
Note: Changing the radio policy could result in a loss of connection when using a
wireless connection to the Web-based Configuration Utility.

7
To deliver the throughput enhancement in both mixed and g-only networks, Prism
NitroTM mode can be enabled by using Intersil’s packet bursting technology. The
burst size is adjustable and typically the bigger burst packet, the more 11g
transmission sharing will occur while a mixed network is in effect.
Deselect the Broadcast SSID option to logically hide the Access Point. The
Access Point will refuse any connection request from an unrecognized Network
ID.
