QUICKLY EVALUATE AP & BRIDGE MODES
Quickly evaluate the ACKSYS device in AP role
You need a second computer (PC2) with a working Wireless connection.
Set up the PC2 Wireless network interface according to the default
parameters of the ACKSYS AP device (802.11gn, SSID "acksys", no security,
static IP 192.168.1.253/24).
Typically assign to PC2 WiFi interface static IP : 192.168.1.2/24.
Quickly evaluate the ACKSYS device in client role
You need two ACKSYS devices, and a second computer (PC2) with a wired
LAN connection.
Set up the IP addresses according to the picture above and set the device
connected to PC2 to Client (infrastructure) role.
From each PC, start a command prompt and run the ping command to verify
the link.
From PC1: type ping 192.168.1.2, verify the answer returned by PC2
« Answer from 192.168.1.2... »
From PC 2: type ping 192.168.1.1, verify the answer returned by PC1
« Answer from 192.168.1.1... »
Notice: The State LED is flashing until the bridge connects to the
AP.
