4. Check LEDs on the ODU to confirm status. At this point the PWR LED should be red and Ethernet LED should be
green. The RF LED would light up once wireless transmission has started or the device has associated itself to an
AP.
5. To access the web manager of the device we need to configure the Windows IP Address Setting so that we are
on the same subnet as the device is and are easily able to access the web manager of the device.
(ii) Windows IP Configuration:
In factory mode the device is not able to assign IP addresses dynamically. You would need to configure your PC
to a static address of a subnet range 192.168.0.x to access the web manager and configure the device according
to your own liking.
Please follow the steps below:
1. Click Start on the taskbar and from the Control Panel choose Network Connections. Right-click the Local
Area Connection icon and then choose Properties from the menu. You should see the Local Area
Connection Properties dialog box shown below.
