Frequently Asked Questions - TEW-941APBO (v1.xR) TRENDNET

How to access the configuration page of the TEW-941APBO?
Connect your computer to the same network as the access point (via a PoE+ switch). Open a browser and enter the URL http://tew-941apbo or http://192.168.10.100. Use the default credentials: username admin and password admin.
How to reset the access point if I forget the password?
The TEW-941APBO has no reset button. It is imperative to note the admin password during configuration. If forgotten, contact TRENDnet support or replace the device.
How to configure a point-to-point bridge with another TEW-941APBO?
Configure the first access point in Access Point mode with a SSID and WiFi password. Configure the second in Client Bridge mode, then use the Site Survey function to select the SSID of the first. Enter the WiFi password and apply the settings.
What are the default WiFi settings?
The default WiFi settings are printed on a sticker provided and on the label at the back of the access point. The default SSID is of the form TRENDnet941_5GHz_XXXX (5 GHz) or TRENDnet941_2.4GHz_XXXX (2.4 GHz). The WiFi password is also indicated.
How to connect the access point to my existing network?
Plug an Ethernet cable between the PoE+ port of the access point and a PoE+ switch or a 2.5G PoE+ injector. If using TRENDnet Hive cloud management, ensure the network has Internet access and a DHCP server.
What is the procedure to install the waterproof kit?
Unscrew the sealing nut, insert the Ethernet cable (without termination) into the nut, the gasket, then the tab. Then insert the assembly into the cable gland, connect the cable to the LAN port, then hand-tighten the nut and main component anticlockwise.
How to mount the access point on a pole?
Use the included metal mounting bracket: align the four holes of the bracket with those on the back of the access point, tighten the locking screw, then attach the bracket to the pole using the provided clamp.
What if I cannot access the web interface after changing the IP address?
Ensure your computer is in the same subnet as the new IP address of the access point. For example, if you changed the address to 192.168.1.x, configure your computer with a static IP address like 192.168.1.25 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Also check physical connections.
What are the LED indicators and their meaning?
The front panel has four LEDs: PWR (power: blinking = startup, solid green = normal), LAN (green = 2.5G link, orange = 1G, blinking = activity), 2.4GHz (solid green = radio enabled, blinking = activity), 5GHz (same).
Does the access point support PoE+? What equipment is recommended?
Yes, it is compliant with IEEE 802.3at PoE+. Use a PoE+ switch with 2.5G port or a 2.5G PoE+ injector like the TPE-215GI from TRENDnet if your switch is not PoE.

Note: The access point complies with the IEEE 802.3at Power over Ethernet (PoE+) standard and can be used with other 802.3at PoE+ switches or PoE+ injectors to deliver both power and data to the access point through the network LAN (PoE) port.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The device does not have a hardware reset button. When changing the administrator password in the access point configuration page, please make sure to write down your new password.

2. Quick Reference

Note: By default, the wireless network name/SSID and wireless encryption settings have been pre-configured for your convenience and can be located on the included preset wireless setting sticker or on the device label located on the back of the access point. By default, the access point web management configuration page can be accessed using the URL http://tew-941apbo or using the default LAN IP address http://192.168.10.100. At default settings and initial setup, if the access point is connected to a network with a DHCP server providing IP address settings automatically, the access point will obtain IP address settings from the network DHCP server and if no DHCP server is available, the access point will use the default IP address settings 192.168.10.100 / 255.255.255.0. and you will need to manually configure your access point with the appropriate IP address and DNS server settings for Internet access. A network router is a typical DHCP server.

For more information on reconfiguring your computer's network adapter to obtain IP address settings automatically using DHCP, please refer to item Q2 in the last section of the installation guide, Installation Tips and Troubleshooting.

4. Point to Point Bridge Setup and Configuration

Note:

  1. The initial configuration should be completed in a testing environment with the TEW-941APBO and additional access point TEW-941APO or TEW-940APBO approximately 15ft. (5 m) apart from one another. If using the TEW-940APBO directional access point, the front panel should be directly facing the TEW-941APBO.
  2. It is strongly recommended to configure and connect the access points before mounting.
  3. In this example, we will configure the TEW-941APBO 5GHz Wireless settings and configure an additional TEW-941APBO or TEW-940APBO to create a wireless bridge to the first access point on the 5GHz Wireless band.
