InitialDeviceSetup
The default product addressis 192.168.2.100.
To access the Web management interface, configure your PCwith a static IP address on the 192.168.2.0 subnet with mask 255.255.255.0. Connect the AP device in to the same physical network as your PC. Open the Web browser and type the default IP address of the device https://192.168.2.100/and the login page will be loaded. Enter default administrator login settings:
Figure 1 Login Page The default administrator login settings are:
Login: admin Password: admin After successful administrator login you will see the main page of the device Web management interface. The device now is ready for configuration. InitialAPSetup
Follow the steps for initial wireless Access Point setup that will be prepared to accept wireless Station connections (refer to the sectionInitial Station Setup for instructions). Step 1. Connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and the AP. Step 2. Make sure your computer is set to the same subnet as the AP, i.e. 192.168.2.150 Step 3. Start your Web browser. Step 4. Each devices uses following default settings:
WAN IP:192.168.2.100 Subnet mask:255.255.255.0 Username:admin Password:admin UsersGuide
The initial login screen looks as follow:
Step 5. Confirm the disclaimer of the APC.According to the chosen country the regulatory domain settings may differ. You are not allowed to select radio channels and RF output power values other the permitted values for your country and regulatory domain. Step 6. Enter the default password, and then press the Login button to enter the AP web management page. UsersGuide
Step 7. Navigate to theNetworkConfiguration tab and choose the Router network mode with NAT enabled, Static IP enabled, LAN settings with DHCP server enabled (to loan an IP addresses for connected clients) on LAN side and click Save Changes:
Step 8. parameters and IEEE mode and click Save Changes:
Navigate to the WirelessConfiguration tab, choose Operating mode, Security UsersGuide
Step 9. successfully connected to the APC device:
Verify connection. Navigate to Information menu to check if the Station are InitialStationSetup Follow the steps for initial wireless client setup that will be connected to the previously configured AP
(refer to the section Initial AP Setup). Step 1. Step 2. Step 3. Step 4. Connect an Ethernet cable between your computer and the JetPalm 5M device. Make sure your computer is set to the same subnet as the APC, i.e. 192.168.2.150 Start your Web browser. Each APC devices uses following default settings:
WAN IP:192.168.2.100 Subnet mask:255.255.255.0 Username:admin Password:admin UsersGuide

Enter the default password, and then press the Login button to enter the APC web management page. UsersGuide
Step 7. Navigate to the NetworkConfiguration tab and choose the bridgenetwork mode with, Dynamic IP enabled (be sure that AP to which the device will be associated has a DHCP server running ((refer to the section Initial AP Setup for instructions)), specify the DHCP fallback settings in case the DHCP server will be unreachable and click Save Changes button:

Step 8. Navigate to the WirelessConfiguration tab, choose Station WDS wireless mode, click Scan button near the SSID entry field to choose the SSID of the AP where the station will be associated to. Specify the Security parameters for the AP, check IEEE mode (these settings must conform with AP wireless settings) and click Save Changes:
Step 9. Verify connection. Navigate to the Information page. The Information page will display wireless information of the link with AP. The connection status must be displayed as Connected and progress bars indicating the quality of the connection must be displayed:

NetworkOperationModes
The device can operate as transparent Bridge or Router. BridgeMode
The device can act as a wireless network bridge and establish wireless links with other APs. In this mode all LAN port and Wireless interface will be a part of the Bridge. Figure 2 Bridge Mode With a Bridge, all connected computers are in the same network subnet. The only data that is allowed to cross the bridge is data that is being sent to a valid address on the other side of the bridge. RouterMode
In router mode the device will receive internet through WAN port and will share it to the LAN ports that will be separated with a different IP range. The type of connection to the WAN interface can be made by Static IP, DHCP client or PPPoE client. Figure 3 Router Mode When device operates in Router mode, the traffic coming on wired interface and going out on wireless interface can be masqueraded by enabling NAT. NAT allows a set of stations clients to invisibly access the Internet via the wireless station. To other clients on the Internet, all this outgoing traffic will appear to be from the APC device itself. UsersGuide
GeneralDeviceOperation
WebManagementStructure
The main webmanagement menu is displayed after successfully login into the system. From this menu all essential configuration pages are accessed. By default the Information menu is activated where the main device information is displayed. The APCwebmanagement menu has the following structure:
Status Information displays general information and of the device. Settings Wireless configuration specify Operating mode (Station, Station WDS), country,SSID, IEEE mode, channel width (MHz), Tx power (dBm), security and advanced radio settings. Network configuration to configure network mode, IP settings, management and data VLANs, DHCP. Services configuration:SNMP service settings allowing remote device monitoring. System configuration: specify device settings (friendly name, device location, contact information), choose system functions (backup, restore configuration, reboot, reset to factory defaults), work with users accounts (create, delete, edit). Tools Site Survey information about other wireless networks in the local area. Antenna alignment measure received signal quality of the wireless link to align antenna in the best direction. Support Troubleshootingmay be downloaded troubleshooting file. SavingConfigurationChanges
There are three general buttons located on the right top corner of the WEB GUIallowing managing device configuration:
Save Changes if pressed new configuration settings are applied instantly and written to the permanent memory. UsersGuide
FCCCaution
1. This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference.
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. 2. Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. NOTE:
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:
Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. RF Exposure Warning Statement:
The device includes it's antenna must be installed to provide a separation distance of at least 50 cm away from the user body.
