Use the Web interface to review and fine-tune a wide range of AP settings.For information on how to configure the AP from the Web interface, refer to the online help. IF YOUR COMPUTER CANNOT CONNECT TO THE AP• Disconnect the AP from the power source, wait 5 seconds, then reconnect it—and wait 60 seconds before attempting a reconnection.• Disconnect and reconnect the AP and the computer.• Replace the Ethernet cable with a new one if the relevant LAN port LED is not illuminated. (LEDs in each port light up during a successful connection.)NOTEIf you anticipate logging into the AP regularly to perform monitoring or maintenance (once it is in place), you may want to consider assigning a static IP address to the AP. This would simplify connections made to the AP for all post-installation maintenance.In a default AP configuration, the AP uses a DHCP-assigned IP address. Any post-installation connections require (1) a reverse ARP lookup or (2) logging into the DHCP server, to determine which IP address is in effect in the AP. See the Ruckus Wireless 2942/7942/7962 AP User Guide for more information on IP address assignment options and logging into the AP through either a static IP or dynamic IP address. OPTIONAL: IF YOU WANT TO SWITCH FROM DHCP (DEFAULT)A. On the menu, click Configuration > Internet. B. Click the Static IP option.C. Fill in the IP Address and Mask fields.D. Click Update Settings to save your changes.TIPUse the wall-mount bracket to help secure the AP in an advantageous location on the wall or ceiling. Follow these guidelines:• Place the AP as close to the center of the room, and away from any physical obstructions.• Place the AP on a shelf or other elevated location where the user’s wireless networking devices are in line-of-sight access.• Avoid any sources of electromagnetic interference.• Avoid placing the AP near large metal or glass surfaces.
