Installing the WNAP210 Wireless Access Point
Before installing the ProSafe Wireless-N Access Point, you should make sure that your Ethernet

Ethernet network. For this to work correctly, you should verify that you have met all of the system
requirements, shown in “System Requirements” on page 1-5.

cess point to the computer.
4. Connect the
power adapter to the access point, and verify the following:
