1. Click Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) and then click Properties. Then click on Use the following IP address, and make sure you assign your network adapter an IP address in the subnet of 192.168.10.x.

I typed http://192.168.10.100 in my Internet Browser's Address Bar, but an error message says "The page cannot be displayed." How can I get into the TEW-653AP's web configuration page?

1. Check your hardware settings again by following the instructions in section 2
2. Make sure the wireless, LAN and power LEDs are lit.
3. Make sure the TCP/IP settings are configured properly (see first question).
4. Since the Access Point's default IP address is 192.168.10.100, make sure that no other network devices are assigned an IP address of 192.168.10.100.
5. Reset the TEW-653AP. Take a pin or paper clip and press the reset button for 15 seconds. The reset button is located on top of the TEW-653AP.

If my network's IP is different than the Access Point's range, what should I do?

You should still configure the Access Point first. After all the settings are applied, go to the Access Point's configuration page, click on System, click on LAN and change the IP address of the Access Point to match your network's IP.

After I successfully configured the Access Point to match my network settings, I can not connect to my network using wireless computers.

If you have a DHCP server in your network, you need to go into TCP/IP settings again and re-select "Obtain an IP address automatically" to allow the PC to regain an IP address from your DHCP server.

All the settings are correct, but I can not make a wireless connection to the Access Point.

1. Double check that the wireless LED on the Access Point is lit.
2. Power cycle the Access Point. Unplug the power to the Access Point. Wait 15 seconds, then plug the power back in.
3. Contact the manufacturer of your wireless network adapter. Make sure the wireless network adapter is configured with the proper SSID. The default SSID of the Access Point is TRENDnet653.

The TEW-653AP does not power on when I plug the device into a Power-Over-Ethernet switch or splitter. What should I do?

1. Verify that the TEW-653AP powers up using the provided 12V, 1A power adapter.
2. Power cycle the PoE switch.
3. Unplug power to the switch, wait 15 seconds, then plug the power back in.
4. Plug the device into a different port on the PoE switch.
5. Try using another Cat-5e cable.

If you still encounter problems or have any questions regarding the TEW-653AP, please contact TRENDnet's Technical Support Department.

The following are some general wireless tips to help minimize the impact of interference within an environment.

Assign your network a unique SSID

Do not use anything that would be identifying like "Smith Family Network". Choose something that you would easily identify when searching for available wireless networks.

Do not turn off the SSID broadcast

The SSID broadcast is intended to be on and turning it off can cause connectivity issues. The preferred method of securing a wireless network is to choose a strong form of encryption with a strong and varied encryption key.

Note: after setting up the SSID, encryption type and encryption key/passphrase, please make a note of them for future reference. You will need this information to connect your wireless computers to the wireless router/access point.

Change the channel

Most wireless access points and routers are defaulted to channel 6. If you have a site survey tool that will display the channels you can plan your channel selection around neighboring access points to minimize interference from them. If your site survey tool does not display the channel try using channels 1 or 11.

Change the channel bandwidth

If you are using an 802.11n router or access point you can also make the following changes. Change the channel bandwidth to 20/40MHz. This will provide the highest possible performance using an 802.11n device. Also, if using 802.11n you should be securing the network with WPA2 security.

Note: Due to Wi-Fi certification considerations if you choose WEP, WPA or WPA2-TKIP encryption this device may operate in legacy wireless mode (802.11b/g). You may not get 802.11n performance as these forms of encryption are not supported by the 802.11n specification.

Avoid stacking hardware on top of each other to prevent overheating issues

Maintain enough free space around the hardware for good ventilation and airflow. There should also be plenty of free space around the antennas to allow the wireless signal to propagate. Please also make sure that the wireless hardware is not placed in any type of shelving or enclosures.

There are a number of other environmental factors that can impact the range of wireless devices.

1. Adjust your wireless devices so that the signal is traveling in a straight path, rather than at an angle. The more material the signal has to pass through the more signal you will lose.

2. Keep the number of obstructions to a minimum. Each obstruction can reduce the range of a wireless device. Position the wireless devices in a manner that will minimize the amount of obstructions between them.

3. Building materials can have a large impact on your wireless signal. In an indoor environment, try to position the wireless devices so that the signal passes through less dense material such as dry wall. Dense materials like metal, solid wood, glass or even furniture may block or degrade the signal.
4. Antenna orientation can also have a large impact on your wireless signal. Use the wireless adapter's site survey tool to determine the best antenna orientation for your wireless devices.
5. Interference from devices that produce RF (radio frequency) noise can also impact your signal. Position your wireless devices away from anything that generates RF noise, such as microwaves, HAM radios, Walkie-Talkies and baby monitors.
6. Any device operating on the 2.4GHz frequency will cause interference. Devices such as 2.4GHz cordless phones or other wireless remotes operating on the 2.4GHz frequency can potentially drop the wireless signal. Although the phone may not be in use, the base can still transmit wireless signals. Move the phone's base station as far away as possible from your wireless devices.

If you are still experiencing low or no signal consider repositioning the wireless devices or installing additional access points. The use of higher gain antennas may also provide the necessary coverage depending on the environment.
