5. Instal·lació i configuració
5.1 Muntatge del punt d'accés
- Selecció del lloc: Choose an outdoor location that provides optimal Wi-Fi coverage and is protected from direct severe weather conditions. Ensure the mounting surface is sturdy.
- Preparació de la superfície de muntatge: Use the provided mounting bracket as a template to mark drill holes on the wall or pole. Drill holes as marked.
- Suport segur: Attach the mounting bracket to the surface using the appropriate screws and anchors.
- Attach AP: Align the GWN7660ELR with the mounting bracket and slide it into place until it securely locks.
- Posada a terra: Connect the grounding wire to the designated grounding screw on the access point and to a proper earth ground.
5.2 Alimentació del dispositiu
The GWN7660ELR is powered via Power over Ethernet (PoE) or PoE+. Connect an Ethernet cable from a PoE/PoE+ enabled switch or injector to the RJ45 port on the access point. The device will automatically detect the power type.
5.3 Configuració inicial
- Connecteu-vos a la xarxa: Ensure the GWN7660ELR is connected to your network via the Ethernet port.
- Accés Web IU:
- Method 1 (GWN.Cloud/GWN Manager): For centralized management, register your GWN7660ELR with GWN.Cloud (cloud.gwn.cloud) or your local GWN Manager instance. Follow the on-screen instructions to add and configure the device.
- Method 2 (Embedded Controller): If managing locally, connect a computer to the same network segment as the GWN7660ELR. The AP will obtain an IP address via DHCP. Use a network scanner tool to find its IP address, or access the default IP if DHCP is not available (refer to the Quick Installation Guide for default IP). Enter the IP address into a web navegador.
- Inici de sessió: Use the default username and password (found on the device label or Quick Installation Guide) to log in to the web interfície.
- Configuració bàsica: Configure essential settings such as Wi-Fi SSID, security type (WPA2/WPA3 recommended), and password.
- Actualització del firmware: It is recommended to check for and install the latest firmware updates after initial setup.
