18
WDS Settings
Wireless Distribution System (WDS) allows you to use the
Access Point to wirelessly connect to other Pro Access
Points. It allows a wireless network to be expanded
without the use of Ethernet cables, similar to how a
repeater works. In WDS mode, the Access Point can
function as a Main Access Point which is connected to a
network using a cable, or it can be a Relay Access Point
which is wirelessly connected to the Main Access Point.
To configure WDS mode you will need to adjust the
settings for the following fields:
a.
Enable WDS: First you must enabled the WDS
function to use it.
b.

Access Point” to easily remember which Access
Point belongs to which MAC Address entry.
d.
Band: Select the wireless band you wish to
operate on.
e.
Wireless Network (SSID): Enter the wireless SSID of your Access Point. Ensure that all WDS Access Points
have unique SSID’s. Do not use the same SSID for two separate Access Points.
f.
Channel: Ensure that all Pro Access Points , Main or Relay operate on the same wireless channel.
g.
DHCP: WDS mode requires that you have a static IP address for your Access Point. Enter a static IP address for
your Access Point by selecting “Disable” under the DHCP field.
h.
IP Address: The IP address of the Pro Access Point should be on the same IP address subnet as the Main or
Relay Access Points. For example, if the network you are connected to has an IP address range of

29
The Access Point is not functioning and the Power LED keeps blinking
a. The network (Ethernet) cable you are using is not compatible with the Access Point. Replace the network cable
between the PoE Adapter and your router/switch with a Non‐PoE Cable.
Tip: How to check whether your cable is a PoE cable or a Non‐PoE cable:
Check the connector tip of the network cable to see if there are 4 wires or 8 wires. Non‐PoE cables use only 4
wires.
b. If you have a computer or network device attached to the LAN port of the Pro Access Point, check that the cable is a
Non‐PoE cable. Some unsupported PoE devices may cause power conflicts with the Access Point.
I do not have Internet access when connecting to the Access Point
a. Your router or original network may not have Internet access. First check to see if you are able to access the Internet
by connecting directly with your router. If you cannot, there is a problem with your router that needs to be fixed first.
If you are able to access the internet, continue with the following troubleshooting options below.
b. Check that the Access Point is correctly connected to your router or network switch. The router should be connected
to the Network Port on the PoE Adapter (Not directly to the Access Point). The PoE adapter should be connected to
the Access Point’s PoE port. After the connection has been established, allow up to 2 minutes for the Access Point to
configure itself to your router’s settings.
c. Your router may be using Static IP assignments. If so, you will need to configure a Static IP for the Access Point.
Connect your PC to the Access Point using an Ethernet cable. Disconnect your PC from any wireless networks that it
may be connected to. Access the web menu at setup.loopcomm.com using a web browser. Access the IP settings
menu from the left hand navigation bar. Select ‘Disable’ under the DHCP dropdown menu and enter an IP address
that matches your router’s IP settings.
d. Detach the cable from the PoE Adapter to your router and reset it back to default settings by holding down the reset
button (red circle) on the back of the PoE Adapter for the Access Point for 5‐10 seconds. After it has reset, reattach it
to your router’s network port. Allow up to 2 minutes for the Access Point to reconfigure itself to your network and
attempt to access the Internet through the Access Point’s wired or wireless network.
My Access Point was working fine previously but now I can no longer access the Internet through the
Access Point.
a. The settings on your router’s network may have changed or you may have lost internet connection on your home
router. Any changes to the DHCP settings of your home router may affect the internet connection of the Access Point.
Check the settings on your router and try again.
b. Reboot the Access Point by unplugging the PoE Adapter’s power adapter and plugging it back in. Allow up to 2
minutes for the Access Point to reconfigure itself to your network. Check to see if your connection has been
reestablished by viewing a website.
30
I can no longer access the Web Menu or the Access Point no longer responds.
a. Double check that you are connected to the Access Point and not to your home router. Disconnect your computer
from all wireless networks and connect back to the Pro Access Point’s wireless network ID (default: Loopcomm_AP)
Try to access the web menu again.
b. If you are advanced in networking troubleshooting, log onto your home router’s web interface. Look for the DHCP
client list and try to find the IP address of your Access Point assigned by your home router. Once you have it, connect
to the Access Point wirelessly. Open your web browser and enter the IP address into the address bar.
c. Reset the Access Point back to default settings and try the Smart Setup Wizard again. To reset the Access Point back
to default settings, hold the Reset Button (on the PoE Adapter) down for five (5) to ten (10) seconds. After the Access
Point has fully reset, connect to the Access Point wirelessly. Log in to the Web Menu at http://setup.loopcomm.com
and reconfigure the settings for your Access Point.
The connection through the Access Point seem slow. File transfers take a long time to transfer.
a. You may be too far away from the wireless network. Wireless data transfer speeds degrade as distances increase
between your computer and the Access Point.
b. You may be downloading from the Internet and not within your local network. Files transferred through the Internet
are limited by your ISP speed and the data download speeds from the website that you are downloading from.
c. Your computer may be using an older Wi‐Fi adapter with lower speed limits (802.11b/g)
d. You may have interference on the wireless channel that the Access Point is currently using. Try changing the channel
of your wireless network.
The range from the Access Point seems low.
a. Check to see that your wireless output settings are at 100%. Go to the Web Menu, Wireless Settings and check the
Advanced Settings. Make sure the output power is at 100%.
b. Your Access Point may be installed in a poor location. Avoid setting up your Access Point in areas with high
interference, such as, near fridges, microwaves, metallic objects and low surfaces. Install the Access Point in a higher
location if possible.
c. Check the connections of the Antennas to the Access Point. Tighten them if necessary.
d. Adjust the direction of the Access Point in different angles. The internal antenna is a high power directional antenna
and will require adjusting to find the optimal orientation.
My Wireless Access Schedule is being erratic and not working at the correct times.
You need to adjust your Time Zone Settings from the Management Web Menu page.
WiFi Protected Setup (WPS) is not working. Push button configuration does not detect the connection.
The Access Point supports WPS connections however some companies may use proprietary code for their own push
button configurations. Try connecting using the Windows wireless utility or Mac wireless utility instead.
