Basic Installation & Setup
Access Point Compatibility
Before you proceed, please ensure you are using one of the access point models in the
list and the firmware version of your access point has been upgraded accordingly to the
versions indicated in the list below. You can download the access point firmware from
http://www.trendnet.com/support which include instructions on how to upgrade the
firmware.
Before any access points are added to the wireless controller, make sure to reset the
access points to factory default after completing the firmware upgrade. Access points
must be in the factory default state when adding the access points to the controller.
All access point configuration settings must be completed through the controller
management interface.

AC1750 Dual Band PoE Access Point
Important Note: Make sure your existing network is using a DHCP server to distribute IP
addresses to the access points. By default, TRENDnet access points listed below will
obtain an IP address automatically through DHCP or otherwise default back to
192.168.10.100 / 255.255.255.0 if a DHCP server is not available on your network. Each
access point must be assigned a unique IP address on the same network. The wireless
controller and access points must be connected to the same IP subnet on your network.
(e.g. 192.168.10.x / 255.255.255.0)
A. Initial Controller Setup
Note: Before connecting the wireless controller to the network and connecting other
devices such as PoE injectors or access points, follow the steps to set up your controller IP
address settings and administrator password first.
3. Assign a static IP address to your computer’s network adapter in the subnet of
192.168.10.x (e.g. 192.168.10.25) and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
Note: For more information on assigning a static IP address to your computer’s network
adapter, please refer to the Troubleshooting section.
4. Open your web browser, and type in the default IP address of the controller in the
address bar, and then press Enter. The default IP address is 192.168.10.200.
