INSTALLATION WARNING

IMPORTANT SAFETY PRECAUTIONS:

LIVES MAY BE AT RISK! Carefully observe these instructions and any special instructions that are included with the

equipment you are installing.

CONTACTING POWER LINES CAN BE LETHAL. Make sure no power lines are anywhere where possible contact can be made. Antennas, masts, towers, guy wires or cables may lean or fall and contact these lines. People may be injured or killed if they are touching or holding any part of equipment when it contacts electric lines. Make sure that equipment or personnel do not come in contact directly or indirectly with power lines.

The horizontal distance from a tower, mast or antenna to the nearest power line should be at least twice the total length of the mast/antenna combination. This will ensure that the mast will not contact power if it falls either during installation or later.

TO AVOID FALLING, USE SAFE PROCEDURES WHEN WORKING AT HEIGHTS ABOVE GROUND.



Select equipment locations that will allow safe, simple equipment installation.



Don’t work alone. A friend or co-worker can save your life if an accident happens.



Use approved non-conducting lasers and other safety equipment. Make sure all equipment is in good repair.



If a tower or mast begins falling, don’t attempt to catch it. Stand back and let it fall.



If anything such as a wire or mast does come in contact with a power line, DON’T TOUCH IT OR ATTEMPT TO MOVE IT. Instead, save your life by calling the power company.



Don’t attempt to erect antennas or towers on windy days.

MAKE SURE ALL TOWERS AND MASTS ARE SECURELY GROUNDED, AND ELECTRICAL CABLES CONNECTED TO ANTENNAS HAVE LIGHTNING ARRESTORS. This will help prevent fire damage or human injury in case of lightning, static

build-up, or short circuit within equipment connected to the antenna.



The base of the antenna mast or tower must be connected directly to the building protective ground or to one or more approved grounding rods, using 1 OAWG ground wire and corrosion-resistant connectors.



Refer to the National Electrical Code for grounding details.

IF A PERSON COMES IN CONTACT WITH ELECTRICAL POWER, AND CANNOT MOVE:



DON’T TOUCH THAT PERSON, OR YOU MAY BE ELECTROCUTED.



Use a non-conductive dry board, stick or rope to push or drag them so they no longer are in contact with electrical power.

Once they are no longer contacting electrical power, administer CPR if you are certified, and make sure that emergency medical aid has been requested.

This chapter will show you how to configure the basic functions of your AP within minutes.

A computer with wired Ethernet connection to the Wireless AP is required for the first-

time

configuration.

3.1 Manual Network Setup -- TCP/IP Configuration

The default IP address of the WBS-500N and WAP-500N is 192.168.1.253. And the default Subnet Mask is

255.255.255.0. These values can be changed as you desire. In this guide, we use all the default values for description.

Connect the WBS-500N or WAP-500N with your PC via an Ethernet cable which is then plugged into a LAN port of the PoE injector with one end and into a LAN port of the PC with the other end. Then power on the WBS-500N and WAP-500N via PoE injector or PoE switch.

In the following sections, we’ll introduce how to install and configure the TCP/IP correctly in Windows 7. And the procedures in other operating systems are similar. First, make sure your Ethernet adapter is working, and refer to the Ethernet adapter’s manual if needed.

3.1.1 Configuring the IP Address Manually

Summary:

 Set up the TCP/IP Protocol for your PC.

 Configure the network parameters. The IP address is 192.168.1.xxx ("xxx" is any number from 2 to

252); subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.

Select Use the following IP address radio button.

If the AP's LAN IP address is 192.168.1.253, enter IP address 192.168.1.x (x is from 2 to 254 except

192.168.1.253), and subnet mask 255.255.255.0.

Select Use the following DNS server addresses radio button. In the Preferred DNS Server field, you can enter the DNS server IP address which has been provided by your ISP

Appendix A: Troubleshooting

If you find the AP is working improperly or stop responding to you, please read this troubleshooting first before contacting the Planet Tech Support for help. Some problems can be solved by yourself within a very short time.

Scenario Solution

The AP is not responding to me when I want to access it by web browser.

a. Please check the connection of the power cord and the

Ethernet cable of this AP. All cords and cables should be correctly and firmly inserted to the AP.

b. If all LEDs on this AP are off, please check the status of

power adapter, and make sure it is correctly powered. c. You must use the same IP address section that AP uses. d. Are you using MAC or IP address filter? Try to connect the

AP by another computer and see if it works; if not, please

reset the AP to the factory default settings (Press the ‘reset’

button for over 10 seconds). e. Set your computer to static IP address, and see if the

Planet Smart Discovery can find the AP or not. f. If you did a firmware upgrade and this happens, contact the

Planet Tech Support for help. g. If all the solutions above don’t work, contact the Planet

Tech Support for help.

I can’t get connected to the Internet.

a. Check the Internet connection status from the router that is

connected with the AP. b. Please be patient. Sometimes Internet is just that slow. c. If you have connected a computer to Internet directly

before, try to do that again, and check if you can get

connected to Internet with your computer directly attached

to the device provided by your Internet service provider. d. Check PPPoE / L2TP / PPTP user ID and password in your

router again. e. Call your Internet service provider and check if there’s

something wrong with their service. f. If you just can’t connect to one or more website, but you

can still use other internet services, please check

URL/Keyword filter. g. Try to reset the AP and try again later. h. Reset the device provided by your Internet service provider. i. Try to use IP address instead of hostname. If you can use

IP address to communicate with a remote server, but can’t

use hostname, please check DNS setting.

I can’t locate my AP by my wireless device.

a. ‘Broadcast ESSID’ set to off? b. The antenna is properly secured.

Page 76

User Manual of WAP-500N/WBS-500N

-75-

c. Are you too far from your AP? Try to get closer. d. Please remember that you have to input ESSID on your

wireless client manually, if ESSID broadcast is disabled.

File downloading is very slow or breaks frequently.

a. Are you using QoS function? Try to disable it and try again. b. Internet is slow sometimes; try to be patient. c. Try to reset the AP and see if it’s better after that. d. Try to know what computers do on your local network. If

someone’s transferring big files, other people will think

Internet is really slow. e. If this never happens before, call you Internet service

provider to know if there is something wrong with their

network.

I can’t log into the web management interface; the password is wrong.

a. Make sure you’re connecting to the correct IP address of

the AP. b. Password is case-sensitive. Make sure the ‘Caps Lock’

The AP becomes hot.

a. This is not a malfunction if you can keep your hand on the

AP’s case. b. If you smell something wrong or see the smoke coming out

from AP or A/C power adapter, please disconnect the AP

and A/C power adapter from utility power (make sure it’s

safe before you’re doing this!), and call your dealer for help.
