INITIAL CONFIGURATION
The SHD69A, 5GHz AP/CPE offers a user-friendly web-based management
interface for the configuration of all the unit’s features. Any
PC directly attached to the unit can access the management interface using a web
browser, such as Internet Explorer (version 6.0 or above).
CONNECTING TO THE LOGIN PAGE
It is recommended to make initial configuration changes by connecting a PC directly
to the SHD69A’s LAN port. The N5 has a default IP address of 192.168.2.1 and a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0. You must set your PC IP address to be on the same subnet
as the SHD69A (that is, the PC and SHD69A addresses must both start 192.168.2.x). To access
the SHD69A’s management GUI interface, follow these steps:
1. Use your web browser to connect to the management interface using the default
IP address of 192.168.2.1.
2. Log into the interface by entering the default username “admin” and password
“admin,” then click OK.

7
STATUS PAGE
After logging in to the web interface, the Status page displays. The Home page
top-menu-bar shows the Status, Easy Setup, Advanced and Language.
EASY SETUP
The Easy Setup is designed to help you configure the basic settings required to get
the SHD69A up and running. There are only a few basic steps you need to set up the
SHE69A to get the connection.

OPERATION MODE -ROUTER
In Router mode, the POE port of the SHD69A will turn into the WAN port. The wireless
interface will become the LAN side. It will turn SHD69A into a wireless router. Since the
Ethernet interface becomes WAN; if your PC is connected to the POE port, the
management IP will change to the WAN IP (192.168.2.1). The remote
management will be automatically turned on to allow you managing the device from
the PoE WAN port..
SETTINGS – PPPoE(ADSL)
1) Select PPPoE to be assigned automatically from an Internet service provider (ISP)
