NFORMATION
You can now use the wireless network to log into the AP’s
Web interface. For information on how to configure the AP,
refer to the
Ruckus Wireless ZoneFlex Access Point User
Guide.
Note:
The following procedures assume Windows 7 as the
operating system. Procedures for other OS’s are similar.
Important!
Write down all of the currently active settings so
you can restore your computer to its current configuration
later (when this process is complete).

Static IP
option.
