Hiiii... hi.... i hve a wireless access point so i configuered. but signal is very low an automatic ip not access any user. so tell me solution.......

Connect to the wifi network called instant and then check in the properties of the connection the IP address of the DHCP server. This is the address of the Ap 175. We worked with some of them and they had the virtual connector configued with the IP address 192.168.10.1

Hi, Your computer is most like have IP address permanently asign. To change the setting for windows 7, click start, click control panel, click network & internet, click network sharing, click connection, click lower left hand property, click Internet protocol version 4 (TCP?IPv4), click property and click obtain and IP address automatically. Your Router will asign IP address. Windows XP, Click start, click connect to, click to show all connection, right click to the wireless connection adapter, click the property and click the down arrow click to TCP/IP, click the property and change it to obtain IP address automatically. That should work for you. Get back to us if this information help you solve you solve the problem. Good day now.

I think a functional explanation may be of some assistance to you.

The IP address is assigned to the server or client software, but not to the physical workstation which the software or device is installed.

D-Link and virtually every other provider uses IP addresses from a Private IP Address class, which is special class of IP addresses that is reserved for private local networks (not to be confused with Virtual Private Networks, or VPN).

The default IP address is 192.168.0.x and assigned automatically. The most common IP address in any local system is 192.168.0.1.

Over the years, I've found that it is unnecessary to manually TCP?IP settings unless the automatic settings or configuaration has failed When I do have to change the settings, the following are used on Local Area Networks (LANs):

IP Address 192.168.0.1
Subnet mask 255.255.255.0
DNS Do not change
Gateway IP
Address None because the default should be 192.168.1.0 or whatever was
automatically assigned.

Some additional information that should assist you in better understanding a LAN.

The SSID (Service Set IDentifier) is a token which identifies a 802.11 (Wi-Fi) network. The SSID is a key which is set by the wireless network administrator. You must know the SSID to connect to a 802.11 wireless network. However, the SSID can be discovered by network sniffing/scanning. By default, the SSID is part of the packet header for every packet sent over the WLAN.

SSID access points continuously broadcast radio signals which are received by client machines if enabled. Based on the automatic or manual configuration, the client can connect to the access point. A SSID is generally 32 bit long, but when displayed to the user, it is projected into a human readable ASCII format. Multiple access points can possibly share the same SSID if they are for the same wireless network. Many wireless access points support broadcasting multiple SSIDs, permitting the formation of Virtual Access Points. Such Virtual Access Points partition a single physical access point into many logical access points, each of which can have a special set of security and network settings.

SSID Security Issues

Every user of the network must configure the SSID into their system. If the network administrator seeks to lock a user out of the network, the administrator must change the SSID of the network, which will require reconfiguration of the SSID on every network node. Some 802.11 NICs allow you to configure several SSIDs at one time.

Default SSID's

Most 802.11 access point vendors allow the use of an SSID of "any" to enable an 802.11 NIC to connect to any 802.11 network. This is known to work with wireless equipment from Buffalo Technologies, Cisco, D-Link, Enterasys, Intermec, Lucent, and Proxim. Other default SSID's include "tsunami", "101", "RoamAbout Default Network Name", "Default SSID", and "Compaq".

Every time a client connects to the wireless network, the SSID is communicated in plain text format, which can easily be sniffed by eavesdropper using sniffing applications like Kismet. Hence, additional security techniques are required to be implemented in order to enhance the wireless security.

All the best

try to face the antenna to a different direction until you got a good signal first.

try to reset your AP please.

You may be trying to connect through a G or B device to your N router. Verify that there are no serious obstructions or that the pc is not underneath something or enclosed. Metal near the pc can cause the signal to lose strength. Not having a wireless N card or adapter can also cause this.

Also if you are trying to connect through ethernet cable verify that windows is being assigned an automatic ip address, if it is static in windows change it to automatic.

if your router doesn't have password yet, you need to get inside of the router configuration.
follow this steps. open an internet explorer at IE web browser type this default IP address,
192.168.0.1, then put this username ADMIN and leave the password blank.
when you get inside you can see the all configuration that you want.

note: the ip address that i give is the default ip. you cannot use this ip if your router is configuered already, unless you reset it.

hope it will help you.

Hello
do you have dhcp on your router or do you have static ip:n on your computers? sounds like you have same ipn on both computers. you should change it to DHCP. go control panel networks settings then rightclick on your connection and properties click tcp/ipv4 settings and properties, mark optain an ip address automatically, also set dns automatically.

192.168.0.1<<< type this in your internet browser search bar
default user name= admin
default password= password
this should be what your ip standard would be for router if you dont have a router the ip will be of a serviced number by your service provider
but heres the easy way remove the network connection and software and reinstall this will give you back your ip properly because the comp will find in its plug and play format

Hi,

After installing the hardware and physical mounting, basic configuration is something like below:

1. Set your computers TCP/IP address temporarily to be a static IP address such as 192.168.1.5;
2. Open your browser and type in 192.168.1.1 in the address bar. The EnGenius password prompt should appear. The default user is admin and the password is also admin. The control interface should now be accessible;
3. Under the Wireless heading click on Site Survey. This will display all the access points in your area. Your ISP or to whatever WiFi network you would want to connect should be listed in the ‘Wireless Site Survey’. Select the access point with the highest signal level or your choice. Click ‘Connect’;
4. After clicking ‘connect’, it should confirm that the EnGenius has connected successfully;
5. Click Ok and it will take you back to the list of wireless site surveys;
6. To confirm that the SSID has been changed go to the ‘Wireless Basic Settings’ page which is in the Wireless submenu in the left side bar. Once on the wireless page go to the box with SSID. The value should read "Your ISP or the WiFi network you would want to connect"; this has to be exact and case-sensitive to connect successfully.

This is just the start, all settings are configurable and actually depends as to how you would want to use the device; as a WiFi Access Point, as a client router mode or Wireless outdoor bridges in WDS mode.

After all settings have been changed to your requirement(s), go back to the PC's control panel and your network connections, and change your TCP/IP address back to DHCP settings (obtaining an IP address automatically). panel window.

Hope this be of initial help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

Thank you for using FixYa.
