CHAPTER 1
Getting to Know Your WAP5805
1.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the main features and applications of the WAP5805.
The WAP5805 enables home users to easily stream HD video content, enjoy IPTV services, and play
online games in different rooms via a wireless network connection with set-top boxes, game
consoles, and other heavy bandwidth devices.
With data rates of up to 600 Mbps, you can enjoy a breathtaking high-speed connection at home or
in the office. It is an excellent solution for daily activities such as file transfers, music downloading,
HD video streaming and online gaming.
1.2 Applications
The WAP5805 can be configured to use the following operating modes:
AP. Use the switch on the side panel to set the WAP5805 to work in AP mode (AP). You can
connect to a broadband modem/router for Internet access and/or connect network devices via
the Ethernet ports of the WAP5805 in AP mode so that they can communicate with each other
and access the Internet. Wireless clients can connect to the WAP5805 in AP mode to access
network resources.
Client. Use the switch on the side panel to set the WAP5805 to work in client mode (CL). The
WAP5805 in client mode can access the Internet through a WAP5805 in AP mode.

1.3 Ways to Manage the WAP5805
Use any of the following methods to manage the WAP5805.
Web Configurator. This is recommended for everyday management of the WAP5805 using a
(supported) web browser.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) button. You can use the WPS button or the WPS section of the Web
Configurator to set up a wireless network with your WAP5805.
1.4 Good Habits for Managing the WAP5805
Do the following things regularly to make the WAP5805 more secure and to manage the WAP5805
more effectively.
Change the password. Use a password that’s not easy to guess and that consists of different
types of characters, such as numbers and letters.
Write down the password and put it in a safe place.
Back up the configuration (and make sure you know how to restore it). Restoring an earlier
working configuration may be useful if the device becomes unstable or even crashes. If you
forget your password, you will have to reset the WAP5805 to its factory default settings. If you
backed up an earlier configuration file, you would not have to totally re-configure the WAP5805.
You could simply restore your last configuration.
1.5 Resetting the WAP5805
If you forget your password or IP address, or you cannot access the Web Configurator, you will need
to use the RESET button at the back of the WAP5805 to reload the factory-default configuration
file. This means that you will lose all configurations that you had previously saved, the password
will be reset to “1234” and the IP address of the WAP5805 in AP mode will be reset to
“192.168.1.2” and the IP address of the WAP5805 in client mode will be reset to “192.168.1.10”.
1.5.1 Procedure to Use the Reset Button
1 Make sure the power LED is on.
2 Press the RESET button for longer than 1 second to restart/reboot the WAP5805.
3 Press the RESET button for longer than five seconds to set the WAP5805 back to its factory-default
configurations.
1.6 The WPS Button
You can use the WPS button ( ) on the front panel of the WAP5805 to activate WPS in order to
quickly set up a wireless network with strong security.
Chapter 1 Getting to Know Your WAP5805

1 Make sure the POWER LED is on (not blinking).
2 Press the WPS button for more than three seconds and release it. Press the WPS button on another
WPS-enabled device within range of the WAP5805.
Note: You must activate WPS in the WAP5805 that acts as the AP and in another
WAP5805 that acts as the client within two minutes of each other.

1.8.1 Desktop Installation
When opening the product, there will be no need to assemble the device, as the WAP5805 will be
fully assembled for you.
Figure 3 Arrows on the Stand and WAP5805

For desktop installation, place the WAP5805 in an area that is convenient for you to access and
preferably in a location that is away from other electric devices.
Figure 4 Stand Installation Example
Complete the following steps to hang your WAP5805 on a wall.
1 Disassemble the stand, see Section Figure 4 on page 16.
2 Select a position free of obstructions on a sturdy wall.
3 Install the stand on the wall. Make sure the screw holes of the stand are on the top and screws are
snugly fastened to the wall. The stand needs to hold the weight of the WAP5805 with the
connection cables.

CHAPTER 2
WAP5805 Modes
2.1 Overview
This chapter introduces the different modes available on your WAP5805. First, the term “mode”
refers to two things in this User’s Guide.
Web Configurator mode. This refers to the Web Configurator screen you want to use for
editing WAP5805 features.
Device mode. This is the operating mode of your WAP5805, or simply how the WAP5805 is
being used in the network.
2.1.1 Web Configurator Modes
This refers to the configuration interface of the Web Configurator, which has two modes:
Expert. Advanced users can change to this mode to customize all the functions of the WAP5805.
Click Expert Mode after logging into the Web Configurator. The User’s Guide Chapter 3 on page
20 through Chapter 10 on page 65 discusses the screens in this mode.
2.1.2 Device Operating Modes
This refers to the operating mode of the WAP5805, which can act as a:
Access Point (AP). Use this mode if you want to extend your network by allowing network
devices to connect to the WAP5805 wirelessly. Go to Section 5.5 on page 33 to view the Status
screen in this mode.
Client (CL). Use this mode if there is an existing WAP5805 that acts as an AP in your network.
Go to Section 6.5 on page 39 to view the Status screen in this mode. In Client mode, you should
know the SSID and wireless security details of the WAP5805 to which you want to connect.
Note: Choose your device mode carefully to avoid having to change it later.
Chapter 2 WAP5805 Modes
WAP5805 User’s Guide
19
2.1.3 Changing Operating Mode
Push the AP/CL switch on the WAP5805’s side panel to the AP position to have the WAP5805 act
as an access point. Otherwise, push the switch to the CL position to have the WAP5805 work as a
wireless client. The WAP5805 restarts automatically after you change operating modes.

WAP5805 User’s Guide 20
CHAPTER 3
The Web Configurator
3.1 Overview
This chapter describes how to access the WAP5805 Web Configurator and provides an overview of
its screens.
The Web Configurator is an HTML-based management interface that allows easy setup and
management of the WAP5805 via Internet browser. Use Internet Explorer 6.0 and later or Firefox
2.0 and later versions. The recommended screen resolution is 1024 by 768 pixels.
In order to use the Web Configurator you need to allow:
Web browser pop-up windows from your device. Web pop-up blocking is enabled by default in
Windows XP SP (Service Pack) 2.
JavaScripts (enabled by default).
Java permissions (enabled by default).
Refer to the Troubleshooting chapter (Chapter 11 on page 72) to see how to make sure these
functions are allowed in Internet Explorer.
3.2 Accessing the Web Configurator
1 Connect your computer to the LAN port of the WAP5805.
2 The default IP address of the WAP5805 in access point mode is “192.168.1.2”. In this case, your
computer must have an IP address in the range between “192.168.1.3” and “192.168.1.254”. The
default IP address of the WAP5805 in client mode is “192.168.1.10”. In this case, your computer
must have an IP address in the range between “192.168.1.3” and “192.168.1.254” except for
“192.168.1.10”.
3 Click Start > Run on your computer in Windows. Type “cmd” in the dialog box. Enter “ipconfig” to
show your computer’s IP address. If your computers IP address is not in the correct range then see
Appendix A on page 77 for information on changing your computer’s IP address.
4 After you’ve set your computer’s IP address, open a web browser such as Internet Explorer and
type “http://192.168.1.2” for AP and “http://192.168.1.10” for CL as the web address in your web
browser.
