Access Points automatically receive the same root password as the
WLAN-Controller, assuming that no root password has been set in the
device itself.

LANconfig automatically detects new LANCOM devices in the TCP/IP net-
work.
If the search detects an unconfigured device, the Setup Wizard launches
to help you with its basic settings, or indeed to handle the entire process
on your behalf (assuming that the appropriate networking environment
exists).
If the Setup Wizard does not start automatically, you can manually
search for new devices at all interfaces (if the L-300 Access Point is
connected via the serial configuration interface) or in the network
(

).
If you cannot access an unconfigured L-300 Access Point, the problem
may be the LAN netmask: In case there are less than 254 potential
hosts available (netmask >'255.255.255.0'), you must ensure that the
IP address 'x.x.x.254' is available in your subnet.
