Connecting the Wireless-G Ethernet
Bridge for Network Use
Note: If you do not have an active connection to the Ethernet-ready network
device, then change the position of the X-II switch.
Note: The Bridge features Power over Ethernet (PoE) support. PoE technology
allows a PoE adapter (also known as a power injector, power hub, or inline
power device) to supply data and power to an Ethernet device using a single
Ethernet network cable. To use the Bridge’s PoE feature, follow the
instructions for your specific PoE device.
Note: The default IP address of the Bridge is 192.168.1.226.
