Before You Begin

It’s best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) that is connected to a router for

configuring the DWL-900AP+. The default IP address for the DWL-900AP+ is

192.168.0.50

with a Subnet Mask of

255.255.255.0

. You will need to assign your

computer a Static IP address within the same range as the DWL-900AP+’s IP address

for the purpose of configuration of the DWL-900AP+.

See the Manual on the CD-ROM

if you need assistance in assigning a Static IP address for your network adapter.
