NP5400 11g Wireless Access Point User Guide Page 9
1. Find an optimum location for the Access Point. The best place for the Access Point is
usually at the center of your wireless network, with line of sight to all of your mobile
stations. Placing the unit in the celing is ideal.
2. Fix the direction of the antenna. Try to place it in a position which can best cover your
wireless network. Normally, the higher you place the antenna, the better the performance
will be. The antenna's position enhances the receiving sensitivity.
3. Connect a standard Ethernet network cable to the Access Point. Then, connect the other end
of the Ethernet cable to a switch or hub. The Access Point will then be connected to your
wired Network.
4. Connect the AC Power Adapter to the Access Point's Power port and plug the other end
into an electrical outlet. Only use the power adapter supplied with the Access Point. Use of
a different adapter may result in product damage.
Now that the hardware installation is complete, proceed to Chapter 5: Setting Up the 11g
Wireless Access Point for directions on how to set up the Access Point.
Note: In order for all other wireless devices to communicate with the Access Point, those
devices must be operating in Infrastructure Mode. If any wireless devices are
configured in Ad Hoc Mode, they will not be recognized by the Access Point.
