default mode for the first time entering the system, which also can be configured as either an access point (AP
Mode) or a gateway (CPE Mode) based on your needs. It is required to follow the respective installation
procedures provided to properly set up the desired mode for this system.
Default IP Address of Web Management Interface:
The default IP address and Subnet Mask for the AP mode and CPE mode are as follows:
Mode AP Mode CPE Mode

Step 1:
Set a static IP address on the same subnet mask as OWL500/510 in TCP/IP of the administrator PC, such as
the following example. Do not duplicate the IP address used here with the IP address of OWL500/510 or any
other devices within the same network.
>> Example of IP Segment:
The valid range of IP address is 1 ~ 254. However, 1 must be avoided as it is already used by OWL500/510.
Below depicts an example of using 100 (the underlined value can be changed as desired).
Step 2: Launch Web Browser
Launch a web browser to access the web management interface of AP mode by entering the default IP
address, http://192.168.1.1/, in the URL field, and then press Enter.
