STEP 2
Power on the AP250 and Connect it to the Ethernet
STEP 3
Install the Wall or Ceiling Mounting Bracket
(Optional)
Use an Ethernet cable to connect the ETH0/POE port on the back of the AP250 to a
port on a PoE switch.
The device’s status light will blink orange as the AP250 initializes and connects to
the Internet. Once the device is fully operational and the Wi-Fi® networks are available,
the status light will turn solid white. This could take up to five minutes.
IMPORTANT: If you are
using Ooma Connect
Internet service or if you are
connecting the AP250 to
another device that does not
provide a POE connection,
ETH0/POE
you will need to use a POE
switch (sold separately)
or a POE injector as an
intermediary to get
the Ooma AP250 online.
The Ooma AP250 can be installed to sit on a desk or other flat surface, or it can be mounted
on the ceiling.
If you would like to mount the device on the ceiling, use the bracket from the mounting kit
as a template to mark the two mounting hole locations. Drill two corresponding holes into
the drywall. Install the two screws (and the drywall anchors if necessary), leaving the screw
heads far enough away from the ceiling that you can slip the bracket over them.
Use the bracket as
a template to mark
and drill two holes
in the wall.
BEST PRACTICE: The area where
you install the AP250 will have
the best Internet speed, so we
recommend installing the AP250
in a centralized location at desk
level or above.
