Setting Up the Cisco WAP4410N Wireless-N
Access Point

The Cisco WAP4410N access point works with the default settings. However, you
can change these settings to suit your needs by accessing the access point using
a web-based configuration utility.

NOTE

Make sure that you have enabled TCP/IP on your computers prior to proceeding.
Computers communicate over the network with this protocol.

Launching the Web-Based Configuration Utility

The firmware v2.0.0.5 or later releases changed the factory default IP address
configuration to DHCP. Before installation, make sure that your DHCP server is
running and can be reached. You may need to disconnect and reconnect the
devices for them to discover their new IP addresses from the DHCP server.

If the Cisco WAP4410N access point does not receive a DHCP response after 60
seconds, it falls back to the following default static IP address: 192.168.1.245 and a
default mask of 255.255.255.0.

NOTE

For firmware releases earlier than v2.0.0.5, the static IP address is 192.168.1.245.

To configure the Cisco WAP4410N access point, follow these steps to access the
Cisco WAP4410N web-based configuration utility from your computer.

STEP 1

Connect the Cisco WAP4410N to the same network as your computer.

STEP 2

Locate the IP address of the Cisco WAP4410N access point.

a. For firmware releases later than v2.0.0.5, locate the IP address assigned by

your DHCP server by accessing your router/DHCP server.

b. For firmware releases earlier than v2.0.0.5, the WAP device’s static IP address

is 192.168.1.245 and a default mask of 255.255.255.0. To reach that IP address,
be sure that your computer is on the 192.168.1.xxx network.
