Symptom Suggested Solutions
The WMS utility cannot
detect an Outdoor AP on
the same network.
1. Make sure the Outdoor AP is powered on and
connected to an Ethernet network.
2. Check the IP addresses assigned to the Outdoor AP
and WMS terminal PC. They should be in the same
subnet and unique. For example, if the Outdoor AP’s
IP address is 192.168.1.5 with a mask of
255.255.255.0, then the PC’s IP address should be
192.168.1.x with a mask of 255.255.255.0.

the location of the wireless PC or AP.
3. Change the wireless channel on the Outdoor AP.
4. Check that the Outdoor AP’s antenna, connectors,
and cabling are firmly connected.
