IV. Appendix IV-1. Configuring your IP address For first-time access, the URL http://EdimaxAP** will not work for static IP users. For first time access to the URL http://EdimaxAP** your computer must be set to use a dynamic IP address. This means your computer can obtain an IP address automatically from a DHCP server. You can check if your computer is set to use a dynamic IP address by following IV-1-1. How to check that your computer uses a dynamic IP address. Static IP users can use the access point's default IP address 192.168.2.2 instead. But in order to do so, you need to temporarily modify your computer's IP address to be in the same IP address subnet e.g. 192.168.2.x (x = 3 - 254). The procedure for modifying your IP address varies across different operating systems; please follow the guide appropriate for your operating system in IV-1-2. How to modify the IP address of your computer. Static IP users please make a note of your static IP before you change it. You can assign a new IP address to the access point which is within the subnet of your network using the browser based configuration interface (refer to III-6. System Utility). Then static IP users can also use the URL http://EdimaxAP** for future access to iQ Setup or the browser based configuration interface. Please remember to change your IP address back to its original value after the access point is properly configured. 54

IV.
Appendix
IV-1.
Configuring your IP address
For first-time access, the URL
http://EdimaxAP**
will not work for
static IP users.
For first time access to the URL
http://EdimaxAP**
your computer must be set
to use a dynamic IP address. This means your computer can obtain an IP
address automatically from a DHCP server. You can check if your computer is
set to use a dynamic IP address by following
IV-1-1. How to check that your
computer uses a dynamic IP address
.
Static IP users
can use the
access point’s default IP address
192.168.2.2
instead. But in order to do so, you need to temporarily modify your
computer’s IP address to be in the same IP address subnet e.g.
192.168.2.x (x
= 3
–
254).
The procedure for modifying your IP address varies across different operating
systems; please follow the guide appropriate for your operating system in
IV-1-2. How to modify the IP address of your computer
.
Static IP users please make a note of your static IP before you
change it.
You can assign a new IP address to the access point which is within the subnet
of your network using the browser based configuration interface (refer to
III-6.
System Utility
). Then static IP users can also use the URL
http://EdimaxAP**
for future access to iQ Setup or the browser based configuration interface.
Please remember to change your IP address back to its original
value after the access point is properly configured.
