  • Use five or super five network cable to connect your W-PA to the network
  • Connect the cable to WAN (PoE) port  
Note

Note: When connecting the W-PA to the local LAN, W-PA should pick up a local IP address (W-PA is set by Default to DHCP). If the device is returning an IP address of 192.168.1.128 after connected to the local LAN (you can check the assigned IP address by pressing and holding the + Volume button for 2 sec), the W-PA seems to be stuck on a Static IP address. If this happened, assign IP address of 192.168.101.130 on the local PC and browse to 192.168.1.128. If presented with Login screen, use the First time login credentials (admin/ admin) to login to the W-PA and change the Network Settings from Static (192.168.1.128) to DHCP, save the changes and reboot the device. After the reboot, the W-PA should return a local IP address, when checked. If when trying to browse to the W-PA, the WEB connection is refused (you never get to Login Screen), then create an RMA.
