HARDWARE CONNECTION 
Note: Before you starting hardware connection, you are advised to find an 
appropriate location to place the Acce ss Point. Usually, the best place for the 
Access Point is at the center of your wire less network, with line of straight to all 
your wireless stations. Also, remember to adjust the antenna; usually the higher 
the antenna is placed, the bette r will be the performance.  
 
1. Connect to your local area network:  connect a Ethernet cable  to one of 
the  Ethernet  port (LAN1,or LAN2) of this Wireless Access Point, and the 
other end to a hub, switch, router, or another wireless access point. 
2.  Power on the device: connect the included AC power adapter to the 
Wireless Access Point’s power port and the other end to a wall outlet.    
3.  Configure your PC:  Make sure your local PC(s) has wireless network 
adapter(s) installed.
