ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WNDAP330 Reference Manual 3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your WNDAP330 Wireless Access Point to a LAN port on your router, switch, or hub. Note: By default, WNDAP330 is set with the DHCP client disabled. If your network uses dynamic IP addresses, you must change this setting. To connect to the WNDAP330 after the DHCP server on your network assigns it a new IP address, enter the wireless access point name into your Web browser. The default wireless access point name is netgearxxxxxx, where xxxxxx represents the last 6 bytes of the MAC address. The default name is printed on the bottom label of the WNDAP330. 4. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter in to a power outlet. The PWR, LAN, and Wireless LAN lights and should light up. Verifying Wireless Connectivity Using a computer with an 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapter with the correct wireless settings needed to connect to the WNDAP330 (SSID, WEP/WPA, MAC ACL, etc.), verify connectivity by using a browser such as Mozilla Firefox, Netscape, or Internet Explorer to browse the Internet, or check for file and printer access on your network. The default SSID for the 802.11b/g/n is NETGEAR-11g; the default SSID for the 802.11a/n is NETGEAR-11a. The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID configured in the ProSafe 802.11n Dual Band Wireless Access Point WNDAP330. If they do not match, no wireless connection will be made. Note: If you are unable to connect, see Chapter 5, "Troubleshooting and Debugging." Basic Installation and Configuration v1.0, May 2008 2-11
