Step 6 – Configure the Settings for the Repeater

1. Start the web browser software (Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome) on the computer.

2. Type the IP address for the Repeater radio unit in the Address Bar at the top of the web

browser window, and then press Enter. If the browser indicates that it is switching to a secure

connection, you may need to click in a message box to continue.

3. In the security dialog box, type admin in both the Username and Password fields, and then

click OK. The FreeWave configuration web server displays.

4. Verify that the serial number at the top of the page matches the serial number of the

Repeater radio. If it does not, make sure that the IP address in the Address Bar at the top of

the web browser window is accurate for that radio. If necessary, type a different IP address in

the Address Bar, and then press Enter.

5. In the menu on the left, click the Radio Setup option.

6. Make sure that the Network Type field is set to Multi-Point.

7. Click the drop-down arrow in the Modem Mode field, and select Repeater from the list.

Note: When configuring the Repeater, leave the Repeaters field set to Disabled. You only

need to enable this setting in the Gateway radio’s configuration.

8. Scroll to the bottom of the Radio Setup page, and then click the drop-down arrow in the

Subnet ID (RX) field. Select an option from the list.

Note: Refer to the network map that you made and use the settings that you assigned.

9. Click the drop-down arrow in the Subnet ID (TX) field. Select an option from the list.

10. Click the Save/Apply button.

11. Click the Reboot button.

Note: If your changes don’t show up in the configuration pages after clicking the Save/Apply

button and rebooting the Ethernet radio, you might need to power cycle the radio. Unplug

the power connector from the control board. Wait a few seconds and then plug the power

connector back in.

Step 7 – Configure the Settings for the Gateway

1. Start the web browser software (Internet Explorer, Firefox, or Chrome) on the computer.

2. Type the IP address for the Gateway radio unit in the Address Bar at the top of the web

browser window, and then press Enter. If the browser indicates that it is switching to a secure

connection, you may need to click in a message box to continue.

3. In the security dialog box, type admin in both the Username and Password fields, and then

click OK. The FreeWave configuration web server displays.
