Installing the base unit
You need to install the base unit before using this product. The installation methods differ
depending on whether you are at a hotel room or at home.
LHotel: See the instructions “While you are at a hotel room” on page 22.
LHome: See the instructions “While you are at home” on page 23.
Note:
LThe AC adaptor and base unit may become warm during use; however this is not a sign
of malfunction.
LYou can also connect your computer to the base unit wirelessly instead of using the
Ethernet cable. To establish a wireless connection between your computer and the base
unit, you need to enter the same SSID into the computer as that of KX-WPA102 (The
SSID is displayed on the included WLAN sticker). See “Using your computer on a
wireless LAN” on page 153 for details.
LYou need to use only the included Panasonic AC adaptor PQWEWP1050 and AC cord
PQJA10188Z.
LLeave the AC adaptor cord plugged in to the AC outlet the whole time.
LThe unit will not work during a power failure.

While you are at a hotel room
You can use the handset while you are away by accessing the Internet at a hotel room.
The hotel you are staying in may give you specific instructions as to what Internet
connection type you should select. In that case, follow their instructions. Otherwise, you
are suggested to select [DHCP] mode when you set Internet Connection Type in
Initialization Wizard (page 27).
1Switch the Mode selector to “HOTEL”.
2Make sure the base unit is left unplugged. Connect the included Ethernet cable to the
“WAN” port on the base unit and the Ethernet port (RJ45 jack) in the hotel room.
3Connect the existing Ethernet cable to the “LAN” port on the base unit and the Ethernet
(LAN) port on your computer.

Note:
LIn step 2, you can connect the base unit to a wireless bridge device in a hotel room if
available. Ask the hotel front desk for details.
While you are at home
The base unit has 2 modes of operation while used at home: AP (Bridge) mode and
Router mode.
AP (Bridge) mode:
Designed for the case when you have a router or modem (DSL or cable) with a built-in
router.
LRefer to the instructions on page 24.
Router mode:
Designed for the case when you have a standard DSL or cable modem only.
LRefer to the instructions on page 25.
Note:
LIf your modem has more than one port, then you have a modem with a built-in router.
LIf you have more than one computer connected to the Internet, then you have a router.
LIf you do not know which type your modem is, ask your Internet service provider.

AP (Bridge) mode - With an EXISTING ROUTER or MODEM with a
built-in ROUTER
If you install the base unit with your existing router or modem with a built-in router, the base
unit operates in AP (Bridge) mode. Select [AP (Bridge)] mode for your Internet
connection type in Initialization Wizard (page 27). In AP (Bridge) mode, the base unit
connects wireless devices to one another and to the LAN, and allows wireless devices to
use DHCP server on the LAN.
1Switch the Mode selector to “HOME”.
2Turn off your computer properly. Unplug any cable connecting your existing router (or
modem with a built-in router) to your computer. However, your existing router (or
modem with a built-in router) needs to remain connected to your cable or DSL modem.
3Make sure the base unit is left unplugged. Connect the included Ethernet cable to the
“WAN” port on the base unit and an unused Ethernet (LAN) port on your existing router
or modem with a built-in router.

Router mode - With a MODEM only
If you install the base unit with a modem only, the base unit operates in Router mode. In
Router mode, the base unit assigns IP addresses to wireless devices as a DHCP server.
It also protects the wireless devices from directly exposing to the LAN. For your Internet
connection type, select [DHCP], [Static] or [PPPoE] in Initialization Wizard (page 27).

Checking for Internet access:
Turn on your computer and open the Web browser to check for Internet access. If you
cannot access the Internet, go through the following.
LFor Cable modem users: Turn off the modem for 10 minutes to erase the old
information in the modem. If this still does not work, you may need to register the base
unit with your Internet service provider. Provide them with the WAN MAC registration
number found on the bottom of the base unit.
LFor DSL modem users: You may need to set the PPPoE configuration for your Internet
connection type in Initialization Wizard (page 27). Do not unplug the power of the base
unit during the setting. If unplugged, it may take a few minutes or more to reset the
PPPoE connection.

Setting the base unit for the first time (Initialization
Wizard)
You can log in the base unit and configure the unit’s settings using a Web browser on your
computer connected to the “LAN” port on the base unit.
Important:
LRecommended Web browser:
Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0 or higher for Windows

LMake sure the base unit and handset are not being used.
LChange the appropriate setting for your network configuration.
If you access the base unit for the first time or after resetting the network settings (page
134, 145), you must set the user name and password first in Initialization Wizard so that
you can access the base unit using them. After that, you need to configure the network
settings you use for HOME and HOTEL modes.
For example, if you register AP (Bridge) setting for HOME mode and DHCP setting for
HOTEL mode, you can connect to the Internet in AP (Bridge) or DHCP mode just by
switching the Mode selector (page 144) to HOME or HOTEL from the next time.
