Getting Started
The WNHD3004 is an Access Point/Bridge that by default runs in "Auto" mode. In this mode, it
detects whether it has a wired connection to a router (with DHCP server). If it does, it
automatically sets itself to "Access Point"(the top of the user interface screen displays "access
point manager"). This takes about 30 –60 seconds. If no DHCP is detected through a wired
connection, it sets itself to Bridge (Station) mode and the top of the user interface screen displays
"bridge manager." This will take about 60 –90 seconds.
In Auto mode, if no DHCP server is detected, it runs in Bridge mode. If the DHCP server is
detected later, and this bridge is not connect to any Access Point (AP), it automatically switches to
Access Point mode.
By default the units run in DHCP client mode, which means the AP and Bridge (if connected to the
AP) will both get DHCP IP addresses from the router.
You must log in to the router’s configuration interface, find the DHCP IP addresses for both the
AP and STA (Bridge) devices, and then connect to their user interfaces by browsing to their IP
addresses.
