2.2 Configure Your PC
The default IP address of your wireless access point is 192.168.0.254. If you are using the default IP subnet,
the computer you are using to connect to the device should be configured with an IP address that starts with
192.168.0.X (2~253) and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0; if you have changed the subnet of the wireless
access point, the computer you are using to connect must be within the same subnet. If you are not clear
about this configuration, please refer to Appendix ---1. Configure PC TCP/IP Settings.
2.3 Connect to Your Device Wirelessly
Having finished above settings, you can search for the device's default wireless network (SSID) from your
wireless devices (notebook, iPad, iPhone, etc) and enter a security key to connect to it wirelessly.
Tip --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. The device's SSID is Tenda_XXXXXX by default and XXXXXX is the last six characters of the MAC
address which you can find on this device’s label.
2. To join your wireless network, the PC you use must have an installed wireless network adapter. If not,
install one.
