8 Cisco WAP150 Quick Start GuideSuggested Next StepsIn case of an error while installing, try the troubleshooting procedures described in this section. TroubleshootingIf you cannot display the configuration utility, you can test the ability of the computer to communicate with the Cisco WAP150 by using ping. To use ping on a computer running Windows: STEP 1Verify that the Cisco WAP150 is powered on and the lights indicate the appropriate links.STEP 2Locate the Cisco WAP150’s IP address. While there are different ways to locate the IP address, this procedure uses Cisco FindIT.a. If you have previously downloaded Cisco FindIT, open Internet Explorer and launch Cisco FindIT. For more information on downloading Cisco FindIT, see www.cisco.com/go/findit.b. In the Cisco FindIT display, place your mouse over the Cisco WAP150’s name. The Cisco WAP150’s IP address is displayed along with other device information.STEP 3Open a command window by choosing Start > Run and enter cmd.STEP 4At the command window prompt, enter ping and the Cisco WAP150’s IP address. In this example, we pinged 192.0.2.10. If successful, you should get a reply similar to the following:Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data:Reply from 192.0.2.10: bytes=32 time<1ms TTL=128If it fails, you should get a reply similar to the following:Pinging 192.0.2.10 with 32 bytes of data:Request timed out.Possible Cause of Installation FailureDevices Cannot Connect Using Wi-FiComplete the Setup Wizard. The Wi-Fi radio on the Cisco WAP150 is turned off by default, and the Setup Wizard activates it. For users who do not want to use the Setup Wizard, log into the Cisco WAP150 using a Category 5e Ethernet cable, and activate the Wi-Fi radio manually. See the Administration Guide for details on activating the Wi-Fi radio.7
Cisco WAP150 Quick Start Guide 9No PowerPower up the switch and your computer if they are turned off.Make sure that your PoE switch is powered on and the lights indicate that you have a link. See “Verifying the Hardware Installation”.Verify that the devices on your network are not plugged into a switchable outlet.Bad Ethernet ConnectionCheck the state of the indicator lights. See “Verifying the Hardware Installation”.Check the Ethernet cable to ensure that it is firmly connected to your devices. Devices connected by the Ethernet cable can include the WAP devices, and routers, any switches, and your computer.Verify that the connected switch has auto-negotiation enabled. The Cisco WAP150 and the switch need the same negotiation parameters set.Bad ImageAfter a new firmware installation, if the POWER light is solid red, which indicates that the device fails to boot with both firmware images, contact system support; see “Where to Go From Here”.Incorrect IP AddressThe most likely cause of connectivity failure is an incorrect IP address. The Web browser may be pointing to the wrong IP address, or your computer may be configured with an IP address that is not in the same subnet as the Cisco WAP150.Because the factory default IP address configuration is DHCP, make sure that your DHCP server is running and can be reached. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP server. You can then query the DHCP server for the new IP address. See Step 2 of “Getting Started with the Configuration” for more information on how to find the DHCP address.If the Cisco WAP150 does not receive a DHCP response (there is no DHCP server on your network) after 60 seconds, the Cisco WAP150 will fallback to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address, be sure that your computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
