Access Point Setup Guide
Set up your access point with Linksys Cloud Manager
Step 1
Make sure the access point is powered on and connected with an ethernet cable to a networkwith internet access. By factory default, the IP address is assigned by a DHCP server. If there is no DHCP server in your network, the default IP address is 192.168.1.252/255.255.255.0.
Log in to the access point’s browser-based admin tool locally. Type in default username: admin, and password: admin. Click the Configure LAN Settings link. Change the IP address or VLAN so the access point can access the internet.
If the indicator LED is off, check that the AC power adapter, or PoE cable, is properly connected on both ends.
Step 2
Enter http://Cloudmanager.Linksys.com in a web browser to access the cloud dashboard. If you already have a Linksys Cloud Manager account, log in.
If not, create an account by completing the on-screen forms. Then, register the access point at the new account.
