OVERVIEW
Your device can function in four different modes.
AP Mode is a regular access point for use in your wireless network. This is the
default mode of the access point.
Repeater Mode is a wireless repeater (also called wireless range extender)
that takes an existing signal from a wireless router or wireless access point
and rebroadcasts it to create a second network.
Managed AP Mode acts as a “slave” AP within an AP array (controlled by the
AP Controller “master”).
Client Bridge Mode determines the device to be a client bridge. The client
bridge receives wireless signal and provides it to devices connected to the
bridge via Ethernet cable.

LAN 1 (PoE-In) Port
II Quick Setup & Mode Selection
The unit can function as a standalone access point (AP Mode), as a repeater
(Repeater Mode), as part of an AP array (Managed AP Mode), or as a client
bridge (Client Bridge Mode).
Follow the default mode steps below and select the desired operation mode.
II-1 Default Mode: Access Point Mode
1. Set your computer’s IP address to 192.168.2.x where x is a number in
the range 3 – 100. If you are unsure how to do this, please refer to V-1
Configuring your IP address for more information.
Please ensure there are no other active network connections on your
computer by disabling Wi-Fi and other Ethernet connections.
2. Wire an Ethernet cable to the LAN 1 (PoE-In) port of the access point
and the PoE switch to power up the access point.
3. Please wait a moment for the device to start up. The device is ready
when the Power LED is turned on.
4. Connect a computer to the switch using an Ethernet cable.
10
5. Enter the device’s default IP address 192.168.2.2 into the URL bar of a
web browser.
6. You will be prompted for a username and password. Enter the default
username “admin” and the default password “1234”.
7. “System Information” home screen will be shown:

If you do not wish to change the operation mode, switch your computer
back to dynamic IP address now.
9. If you wish to change to a different operation mode, go to “Operation
Mode” tab to select the desired operation mode. Follow the steps in
the following sections to change the operation mode.
12
II-2 Repeater Mode
From the default mode above,
1. Select Repeater Mode from the operation mode drop down menu:

security details for the source SSID (e.g. Pre-shared Key). Click “Connect”
to proceed.
Wait for the configuration to take effect:
7. The device (now in Repeater Mode) will establish a connection to the
source SSID and repeat the extended SSID. The device will become a
DHCP client of the router/root AP. Switch your computer back to
dynamic IP address.
8. To access the web user interface, check your router/root AP’s settings
to determine the device’s new IP address. Enter the new IP address into
the browser for the web user interface.
If you wish to switch the operation mode, please reset the device to

provides it to devices connected to the bridge via Ethernet cable. The
device will become a DHCP client of the router/root AP. Switch your
computer back to dynamic IP address.
8. To access the web user interface, check your router/root AP’s settings
to determine the device’s new IP address. Enter the new IP address into
the browser for the web user interface.
If you wish to switch the operation mode, please reset the device to
factory default (via web user interface or hardware reset).
18
II-4 Managed AP Mode
Scenario: The Unit being managed by an AP Controller
The access point can be part of an AP Array by switching to “Managed AP
Mode”.
An AP Array is a group of access points centrally managed by an AP Controller,
where it can monitor, configure and manage all Managed APs.
An overview of the system is shown below:
By default, the access point will automatically switch mode if an AP
Controller is present in the network.
19
To manually change to “Managed AP Mode”:
Ensure you have the latest firmware from the Edimax website for your
Edimax Pro products.
1. Connect an AP Controller to the switch currently connected to the
access point and computer.
2. From the default mode above, select Managed AP Mode from the
operation mode drop down menu:
3. Press “Apply” and wait for the device to reboot into Managed AP
Mode:
Wait for a few minutes for the settings to sync.
20
II-5 Basic Settings
Basic settings of the access point are:
- LAN IP Address; and
- 2.4GHz & 5GHz SSID & Security; and
- Administrator Name & Password; and
- Time & Date
It is recommended that these settings are configured before using the
access point.
Whenever a new setting is applied to the access point, the webpage will
reload, as shown below:
Instructions below will help you configure these settings:
Changing IP Address:
1. Go to “Network Settings” > “LAN-side IP Address” for the screen
below:
21
2. Enter the IP address settings you wish to use for your access point. You
can use a dynamic (DHCP) or static IP address, depending on your
network environment. Click “Apply” to save the changes and wait a few
moments for the access point to reload.
When you change your access point’s IP address, you need to use the
new IP address to access the browser based configuration interface
instead of the default IP 192.168.2.2.
