On the bridge AP that is to supply power, slide the PoC DC
switch to the ON position.

4. Verify Bridge AP Operation

Verify basic switch operation by checking the system LEDs.
When operating normally, the Power LED should be on
green, and the WiFi, Eth and G.hn LEDs should be on or
blinking green.

5. Connect an Ethernet Cable

Caution:

Damage may occur if an F-type cable connector
on the GLinq is overtightened. Do not tighten a connector
more than the maximum torque rating of 168 N-cm (16 lb­in).

Note:

Use only threaded male F-type compression coaxial

cable connectors to connect coaxial cable between the
bridge APs.

Note:

It is NOT recommended to use Flex F or push-on

connectors. Always use standard threaded male F­connectors.

Screw a male coaxial cable connector onto the bridge AP F­type coaxial connector until it is finger tight. If you are using
a specialized torque wrench, tighten the connector to the
maximum specified torque of:

◆

168 N-cm or 16 lb-in

As the connection is made, check the G.hn port status LED to
be sure the link is valid:

◆

On Green — Port has a valid link.

◆

Blinking Green — Indicates network activity.

7.Verify AP Operation

Connect Category 5e or better cable to the RJ-45 port.

As the connection is made, check the Ethernet port status
LED to be sure the link is valid:

◆

On Green — Port has a valid link.

8. Complete the Device Configuration

Log in to the web interface
using the default settings:

◆

Login Name — root

◆

Password — admin123

a. Manage the AP with the IgniteNet Cloud Controller

Go to https://cloud.ignitenet.com to register your AP. Log in and
select Devices from the menu. Click Add Device and enter the AP
serial number and MAC address to register the AP with your cloud
network. (The serial number and MAC address can be found on the
product packaging or label.)

b. Manage the AP in Stand-Alone Mode (Optional)

To access th e web interface, connect a PC dire ctly to the A P’s Eth RJ­45 port. In a web browser, enter the AP’s default management IP
address of 192.168.1.20 to access the web login page.

If you select to manage the AP in stand-alone mode, use the web
interface to manually make your configuration changes.

For more information on AP configuration in stand-alone mode,
refer to the HeliOS User Manual, which can be downloaded from:

https://support.ignitenet.com

Note:

To reset the Bridge AP to factory default settings,

press and hold down the AP’s Reset button for 5 seconds. A
quick press of the Reset button reboots the AP.
