NOTE:
Although the Web Management utility is Web based, you may want to
connect your computer to the Ethernet port on your PlugLAN 8350 Wireless
SmarTAP instead of performing advanced configuration activities through your
wireless network. For information about making this connection, see

To connect to the Web Management utility, your PC’s IP address must
be on the same subnet (

xxx
, where
xxx
is a number from 1 to 253)
as the PlugLAN 8350 Wireless SmarTAP.
