Frequently Asked Questions

What is the IP address I need for initial web setup access?

Open a Web browser and type http://192.168.0.50 into the URL address box. Use 'admin' as the username and leave the password field blank to log in.

What encryption security levels are available for 802.11a networks?

The device supports three encryption levels: 64-bit, 128-bit, or 152-bit, all using only Hexadecimal format.
