READ ME FIRST - CONTROLLER COMPATIBILITY
This XAP-1510 is compatible with the Luxul Wireless Controller for fast, easy
configuration and deployment of wireless networks with multiple APs.
nNote: If you’ll be using this AP with a Wireless Controller, refer to
the Quick Install Guide included with the Wireless Controller for
setup instructions.
AP SETUP AND CONFIGURATION
1 Physical Installation
The XAP-1510 access point is designed for simple and efficient installation
and can be located one of three ways. First, the included mount is designed to
attach directly to several different regions’ standard electrical boxes. Second,
the XAP-1510 may be mounted on a ceiling or wall without a box by using the
included mount as a guide to mark attachment locations. Finally, the XAP-1510
can be placed on a flat surface by attaching the included rubber feet
to the mount.
cCaution: Attach the rubber feet to the mount and attach the mount to
the AP for flat surface placement to avoid overheating and failure.
XSingle Access Point Placement: Because the signal generated by the
XAP-1500 is omnidirectional, the unit should be located as near as possible
to the center of the desired coverage area.
XAP-1510 Single AP Coverage Pattern
XMultiple Access Point Placement: You may need to experiment with
AP placement to optimize the roaming experience. Place APs to ensure
adequate coverage, but not so far apart that there is no signal overlap.
Adjacent APs should overlap enough that the client device has a good
connection to the AP to which it is currently attached, but also sees the
next-nearest AP. Ideally, roaming clients should see signal strength of
two overlapping APs in the range of -60 to -70 dBm at the midway
point between two APs. To learn more about AP placement, visit
luxul.com/ap-placement.

3 Preparing for Access
IP Addressing
If the XAP-1510 is connected to a network with a 192.168.0.X address
scheme, and your computer shares a similar address on the same network,
you can skip to the next step, Access and Setup.
nNote: If another device on your network shares the 192.168.0.10
address, you’ll need to temporarily reassign or remove that
device while you configure the XAP-1510.
If your network uses an address scheme other than 192.168.0.X, you’ll need
to set a temporary static IP address on the computer you’re using for config-
uration. To do so, set the IP address of your computer to an address in the
192.168.0.X range, then set the Gateway/Router address to 192.168.0.10 (the
default IP address of the XAP-1510).
Once you’re finished configuring the AP, you can return your computer’s IP
configuration to normal, typically “Obtain Automatically/DHCP.”
nNote: Visit http://luxul.com/ip-addressing to learn more about
changing your computer’s IP address and getting connected.
