Wireless Access Point

Before You Begin

It’s best to use a computer (with an Ethernet adapter) that is connected to a switch for
configuring the DWL-2000AP. The default IP address for the DWL-2000AP 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-2000AP’s IP address
for the purpose of configuring the DWL-2000AP. See the Appendix if you need

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