a DC power resource using the included power adapter.
After finishing connection, ensure that the AP’s LED indicator blinks and the lower-right

If your AP is managed by an IP-COM router in the LAN network, the AP’s IP address may have been changed.
If you want to go to the AP’s web UI, first view the new IP address of the AP on the web UI of the router,
then log in to the AP’s web UI using the new IP address.
