Chapter 4: Configuring the Wireless CPE
Overview
The Telex wireless CPE is shipped with default (factory-set) values for certain network settings.
You will need to change these settings at the client location to match those provided by your ISP
or IS Department.
To do this requires 3 main steps:
1. Change your computer network settings to match the default network settings in the CPE so
your computer can communicate with the CPE.
2. Using a standard web browser (Internet Explorer 5.5 or later, Netscape 7.0 or la ter), change
the CPE wireless network settings from the default values to the values provided by your ISP
or IS Dept. so that your CPE can communicate with the Access Point or another CPE.
3. If necessary, change the network settings on the CPE and computer to match other devices on
a wired network connected to the computer.
If you do not know how to enable and change network setting on your PC, contact your
network service provider (ISP or IS Dept.) support desk or a qualified PC technician for
assistance.
If your network service provider has not already provided you with specific network settings to
use, contact them now and ask for the following:
1. The IP Address assigned to your CPE:
2. The corresponding Subnet Mask:
3. The corresponding Default Gateway:
4. The corresponding SSID and radio channel:
If your network uses DHCP to assign IP addresses automatically, you may not need the IP
address, Subnet Mask or Default Gateway.
