2Installation
2-1 Connecting the Antennas
The WG-500P 24Roam provides two antenna connectors on the rear of the unit.
2-2 Installation Requirements
Before installing the WG-500P 24Roam, make sure your network meets the
following requirements.
System Requirements
The WG-500P 24Roam requires one of the following types of software:
Windows 98 Second Edition/NT/2000/XP/Vista
Red Hat Linux 7.3 or later version
MAC OS X 10.2.4 or later version
Any TCP/IP-enabled systems like Mac OS and UNIX (TCP/IP protocol

ISP Requirements
Verify whether your ISP use fixed or dynamic IP. If it is a fixed IP, be sure to get the
IP from your ISP. For dynamic IP, which is mostly used, the PC will get the IP
automatically whenever it hooks up on the modem.
Dynamic IP
Dynamic IP Setting
Fixed IP
Your fixed IP address for the WG-500P 24Roam
Your subnet mask for the WG-500P 24Roam
Your default gateway IP address
Your DNS IP address
PPPoE
Your user name and password from your ISP
PPTP
PPTP Server IP Address from your ISP
PPTP Local IP address from your ISP.
PPTP Local IP subnet mask from your ISP.
Your user name from your ISP
Your password from your ISP
Your PC Requirements
The Static IP settings for the PC
Your PC’s fixed IP address
Your PC’s subnet mask
Your PC’s default gateway IP address
Your PC’s primary DNS IP address
Note:
1. The gateway’s default IP address setting is “10.59.1.1”.
2. The gateway’s default subnet mask setting is “255.255.255.0”.
The Dynamic IP settings for the PC
We recommend that you leave your IP settings as automatically assigned. By default,
the WG-500P 24Roam is a DHCP server, and it will give your PC the necessary IP
settings.
