Chapter 1 Application scenario 1
1 Application scenario
1.1 ISP hotspot connection-WISP mode
The internet access in an apartment needs to be achieved by connecting an ISP (Internet
Server Provider) hotspot.
1.1.1 Solution
IP-COM CPE can meet this demand.
CPE6S is used as an example to illustrate the installation procedures. Procedures for other
CPEs are similar.
Tip
To establish the network quickly, you are recommended to set up the CPEs before installing them.
1.1.2 Set up the CPE
1. Power on the CPE (powered by PoE in this example).
(1) Uncover the housing of the CPE.
(2) Use an Ethernet cable (CAT5e or better is recommended) to connect the PoE/LAN port of
the CPE to the PoE port of the PoE injector.
(3) Use the included power adapter to connect the PoE injector to a power socket. The Power
LED indicator of the CPE lights up.

Chapter 1 Application scenario 2
Tip
Refer to your actual product for the supported PoE power supply distance.
2. Set the CPE to WISP mode.
(1) Use an Ethernet cable to connect your computer to the LAN port of the PoE injector.
(2) Log in to the web UI of CPE, and choose Quick Setup to enter the configuration page.
(3) Select WISP, and click Next.
(4) Select the SSID of your ISP hotspot, which is WiFi_123456 in this example, and click Next.
