If the ZyXEL Device cannot communicate with the network, ensure that the
ZyXEL Device is using an IP address on the same subnet as the switch /
router.

4 Install the Hardware

Figures in this section use generic icons. The ZyXEL Device in the picture is not an exact
representation of your device.

4.1 Attaching Antennas

4.2 Hardware Mounting

In general, the best location for the access point is at the center of your intended wireless
coverage area. For better performance, mount the ZyXEL Device high up in an area that is
free of obstructions.

Wall-mounting

Do the following to attach your ZyXEL Device to a wall.

1 Screw the two screws provided with your ZyXEL Device into the wall 140mm apart (see

the figure in step 3). Use screws with 6mm ~ 8mm (0.24" ~ 0.31") wide heads. Do not
screw the screws all the way in to the wall; leave a small gap between the head of the
screw and the wall.
The gap must be big enough for the screw heads to slide into the screw slots and the
connection cables to run down the back of the ZyXEL Device.

Screw the antennas clockwise onto the antenna connectors on
the sides of your ZyXEL Device. The antennas should be
perpendicular to the ground and parallel to each other.

Make sure the antennas are securely screwed onto the antenna
connectors.
