AP Configuration Using Locator

The WAP-6100 allows configuration either via the configuration utility, known as
Locator, or Web Browser through network. For the initial installation, we suggest
using the PLANET WAP-6100 Locator. Before using Locator, please make sure the
personal firewall installed in your PC is disabled.

It is strongly recommended to configure and manage WAP-6100 using a wired LAN
computer.

1. Insert the bundled CD in the CD-ROM drive to initiate the autorun program. Click

on the "PLANET WAP-6100 Locator" hyperlink to activate the program.

Or you can start the installation as follows.

A. Click on Start Menu/ Run.
B. Enter “E:\Utility\Locator.exe” in the appeared box, where “E” is the letter of

your CD-ROM drive.

C. Click on “OK” button.

2. When the Locator is started, it will search the available WAP-6100 on the

same network. The Locator shows you the Device Name, Device Type, IP
Address, Ethernet MAC Address and Firmware Version. If there are multiple
WAP-6100 or WAP-6000 in the same network, all of them will be listed.
The default IP address of WAP-6100 is 192.168.1.1.

3. To change the IP address, select the target WAP-6100 if there are multiple

devices, and click on the “IP Setting” button. A login dialog box will pop up.
Please input your user name and password into the fields. Default user name is
Admin and no password.

Please note the first character of user name is a capital letter.
