1. If you plan to use a 10/100/1G Admin Port, connect the unit to the router with a physical 10/100
(Ethernet) cable.
2. Set up a Wi-Fi Admin Port or a 10/100/1G Admin Port on the unit, as applicable (see Admin Port on
page 5-5).
NOTE: Remote control over a Wi-Fi Admin Port will not allow access to functions within the Wi-Fi
menu (F2).
3. Note the IP address that was assigned and then initiate the VNC session on the client device (see
Initiating a VNC connection on the client on page 2-49).
Local remote control (via a Wi-Fi access point) setup
NOTE: This feature is available as a purchasable option. For more information, see Licensed feature
details on page 2-53.
This setup allows local remote control over a direct wireless connection to the unit, where the unit sets up
a small Wi-Fi network to which another device can connect. As an example, it might be used by a
technician who needs to physically connect the unit at some point on a residential network, then control
the unit from elsewhere in the residence. Because the devices connect directly, it may be more
convenient than using the residential LAN to establish connectivity.
Figure 2-39 Remote control via a Wi-Fi access point
To establish the access point, select System > Admin Port > Wi-Fi Admin Port > AP Remote Control.
The process launches immediately and the unit presents a results screen that includes its SSID and IP
