Federal Communication Commission Interference Statement
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital
device, pursuant to Part 15 of FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable
protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment
generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance
with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no
guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause
harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment
off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following
measures:
1. Reo
rient or relocate the receiving antenna.
2. Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
3. Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is
connected.
4. Consult the dealer or an experienced radio technician for help.
FCC Caution
To assure continued compliance, use only shielded interface cables when connecting to computer or
peripheral devices. Any changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party responsible
for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference
(2) This device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired
operation.

Federal Communication Commission (FCC) Radiation Exposure Statement
This equipment complies with FCC radiation exposure set forth for an uncontrolled environment. In
order to avoid the possibility of exceeding the FCC radio frequency exposure limits, human proximity
to the antenna shall not be less than 20 cm (8 inches) during normal operation.
R&TTE Compliance Statement
This equipment complies with all the requirements of DIRECTIVE 1999/5/CE OF THE EUROPEAN
PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF 9 March 1999 on radio equipment and telecommunication
terminal Equipment and the mutual recognition of their conformity (R&TTE). The R&TTE Directive
repeals and replaces in the directive 98/13/EEC (Telecommunications Terminal Equipment and
Satellite Earth Station Equipment) as of April 8, 2000.
Safety
This equipment is designed with the utmost care for the safety of those who install and use it.
However, special attention must be paid to the dangers of electric shock and static electricity when
working with electrical equipment. All guidelines of this and of the computer manufacture must
therefore be allowed at all times to ensure the safe use of the equipment.
National Restrictions
This device is intended for home and office use in all EU countries (and other countries following the EU
directive 1999/5/EC) without any limitation except for the countries mentioned below:
Country Restriction Reasons/remarks

Note: Please don’t use the product outdoors in France.
WEEE regulation
To avoid the potential effects on the environment and human health as a result of the
presence of hazardous substances in electrical and electronic equipment, end users of
electrical and electronic equipment should understand the meaning of the crossed-out
wheeled bin symbol. Do not dispose of WEEE as unsorted municipal waste and have to
collect such WEEE separately.

Chapter 4. Connect to the AP
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.
4.1 System Requirements
Broadband Internet Access Service (Cable/xDSL/Ethernet connection)
One IEEE 802.3af/at PoE switch (supply power to the WNAP-W2201A)
PCs with a working Ethernet adapter and an Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors
PCs running Windows XP, Windows Vista, Win 7, Win8, Win10, MAC OS 9 or later, Linux, UNIX or
other platforms compatible with TCP/IP protocols
1. The AP in the following instructions refers to PLANET WNAP-W2201A.
2. It is recommended to use Internet Explore 8.0 or above to access the AP.
4.2 Manual Network Setup -- TCP/IP Configuration
The default IP address of the WNAP-W2201A is 192.168.1.253. And the default Subnet Mask is 255.255.255.0.
These values can be changed as you want. In this guide, we use all the default values for description.
Connect the WNAP-W2201A with your PC by an Ethernet cable plugging in LAN port on one side and in LAN
port of PC on the other side. Please power on the WNAP-W2201A by PoE switch through the PoE port.
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 manual if needed.

4.2.1 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 (If the default IP address of the
WNAP-W2201A is 192.168.1.253, and the DSL router is 192.168.1.254, the "xxx" can be configured to
any number from 1 to 252.) and subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
1 Select Use the following IP address, and then configure the IP address of the PC.
2 For example, as the default IP address of the WNAP-W2201A is 192.168.1.253 and the DSL router is
192.168.1.254, you may choose from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.252.

Now click OK to save your settings.
Now, you can run the ping command in the command prompt to verify the network connection between your
PC and the AP. The following example is in Windows 7 OS. Please follow the steps below:
1. Click on Start > Run.

If the address is 0.0.0.0, check your adapter installation, security settings, and the settings on your AP. Some
firewall software programs may block a DHCP request on newly installed adapters.

Chapter 5. Configuring the AP
This chapter delivers a detailed presentation of AP’s functionalities and features the main items below, allowing
you to manage the AP with ease.
Standalone AP Mode Managed AP Mode
Figure 5-1 Main Menu
During operation, if you are not clear about a certain feature, you can refer to the “Help” section at the right side
of the screen to read all the related helpful information.
5.1 Operation Mode
The Operation Mode section guides you to configuring the WNAP-W2201A to Standalone AP or Managed AP.
When switching the operation mode to Managed AP, the administrator will be able to manage the AP by
PLANET Wireless AP Controller. To configure the managed AP by PLANET Wireless AP Controller, please refer
to the WAPC-1232HP/WAPC-2864HP AP Management user’s manual.

In Standalone AP, the AP acts as an individual AP in the network, and you
manage it by using the Administrator Web User Interface (UI), or SNMP.
In Managed AP, the AP is part of the PLANET Wireless AP controller System, and
you manage it by using the WAPC Wireless AP controller.
Check this option and enter the IP address of the AP controller that user
specifies. The default “0.0.0.0” means any AP controller existed in the local
network can control this AP.
Click “Apply Change” to save and apply the settings.
Click “Reset” to erase all settings.
After you configure the settings on the AP Operation Mode page, you must click Apply
to apply the changes and to save the settings. Changing some settings might cause the
AP to stop and restart system processes. If this happens, wireless clients will
temporarily lose connectivity. We recommend that you change AP settings when WLAN
traffic is low.
Please back up the configuration settings before switching from the Standalone AP
mode to the Managed AP mode.
All the configurations will be erased and at the same time, the system will return to the
factory default settings once it is reverted to the Standalone AP mode.
