Enter the IP address of the AP in the Address field. The default IP Address is 192.168.0.2.
The AP main page contains four items. ¾ Information: General: This item displays the general information of the AP such as the MAC address and Firmware Version.
¾ Configuration: General: You may make the settings on the AP such as Access Point Name, Radio mode, ESSID, channel and password etc.
AP Name: In this field, you may enter any name. This will enable you to manage your AP more easily if you have multiple Access Points on the network. Besides, Access Point Name can be used to prevent you from forgetting an IP Address and fail to access the website.
