How to Log In to the ME103 Using Its Default IP Address

1.

192.168.0.224 is the default IP address of your access point. However, the ME103 is also set,
by default, to be a DHCP client. So, if the ME103 has not yet been installed, and there is no
DHCP server on the network, you can log in to the ME103 using its default IP address.
Otherwise, you should use either the NetBIOS login described in

“How to Log In to the

ME103 Using Its Default NetBIOS Name” on page 3-8

or the procedure described in

“Set up

the ME103 Access Point” on page 3-5

” which uses a static IP configuration.

Note: The computer you are using to connect to the ME103 should be configured with an IP
address that starts with 192.168.0.x and a Subnet Mask of 255.255.255.0.
