## <mark style="color:blue;">**Network Requirements**</mark>

Before you get started, please make sure your network environment is DHCP-enabled. EnGenius Cloud Access Points (ECW series) are default assigned an IP address dynamically by the DHCP server.

{% hint style="info" %}
If you encounter issues with IP address assignment, you may want to change your IP assignment from "**DHCP mode**" to "**Static IP**". Please check the "[User Manual: Login to Local Access Page](https://docs.engenius.ai/engenius-cloud/getting-started/device-setup/troubleshooting-ecw-ap/login-to-local-access-page)" for more details.

### <mark style="color:blue;">**Step2: Power On Device**</mark>&#x20;

The EnGenius Cloud AP devices can be powered by any of the following:

* EnGenius Cloud PoE Switch or 802.3af/ 802.3at PoE+ compliant Switch
* EnGenius PoE adaptor (EPA5006GP/EPA5006GAT)
* Power Adapter (DC 12V/1.5A power input)

{% hint style="danger" %}
Do not use both power sources at the same time.
{% endhint %}

#### <mark style="color:blue;">Connecting to a PoE Switch</mark>

Connect the Ethernet cable from the EnGenius Cloud AP directly to the PoE port of the PoE switch.&#x20;



![AP is powered by a PoE Switch](https://content.gitbook.com/content/d7AibbXDBWxY5VibQXUs/blobs/QOae1anuQMjVrDyr9I35/image.png)



#### <mark style="color:blue;">Powered with a PoE Adapter</mark>

(A) Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the LAN (PoE) port of EnGenius Cloud AP and the other end to the PoE port on the PoE Adapter.&#x20;

(B) Connect the power cord with the PoE Adapter and plug the other end into an electrical outlet.&#x20;

(C) Connect the second Ethernet cable into the LAN port of the PoE Adapter and the other end to the Ethernet port on the computer.

{% hint style="info" %}
Please ensure to use cat5/cat5e UTP/STP RJ45 Ethernet cables.
{% endhint %}

#### <mark style="color:blue;">Powered with a Power Adapter</mark>

Connect the Power Cord to the adapter, and then plug the Power Cord into the power outlet.

![AP is powered with a power adapter](https://content.gitbook.com/content/d7AibbXDBWxY5VibQXUs/blobs/P6GAzcRQb7q9cTqHSGeT/image.png)

### <mark style="color:blue;">Step3: Connect to the EnGenius Cloud</mark>

Once the device is powered on and ready to connect to the Internet, the **LED indicator** will stay _<mark style="background-color:blue;">Solid On</mark>_, which means the device is now connected to the EnGenius Cloud Platform. It will automatically download the default configuration settings from EnGenius Cloud for automated provisioning.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
When the Access Point is connected to the EnGenius Cloud Platform for the first time, it will automatically check the latest firmware version available. If the **firmware upgrade** is required, it might take **8\~10 minutes** to complete the process. The **LED** indicator will be _<mark style="background-color:orange;">Flashing</mark> (0.5 sec)_ till the process is finished.
{% endhint %}

### <mark style="color:blue;">**Step4: Manage with the EnGenius Cloud**</mark>

Log in to the [<mark style="color:blue;">**EnGenius Cloud**</mark>](https://cloud.engenius.ai/) <mark style="color:blue;">**platform**</mark> to configure detailed settings. For more information, please refer to [User Manual](https://docs.engenius.ai/engenius-cloud/).

![EnGenius Cloud Dashboard](https://content.gitbook.com/content/d7AibbXDBWxY5VibQXUs/blobs/XaIS3wo9FLrb4JE7jpIH/image.png)

## <mark style="color:blue;">Troubleshooting</mark>

If your AP cannot be managed by the EnGenius Cloud Platform, there might be a problem with connecting to EnGenius Cloud.

To troubleshoot the connection issue, you may log in to the **Device Local Access** page:

1. Use your client device (e.g., a laptop, mobile device, or tablet) to find the SSID: "**EnMGMTxxxx**" (xxxx is the last four digits of MAC - MAC would be found on the back of the device) and connect to it.
2. Under your web browser, enter the URL: [**http://EnGenius.local**](http://engenius.local/) or <mark style="color:blue;">**http://192.168.1.1**</mark> to access the device's user interface.&#x20;
3. You can review the device status after logging into the AP with the default admin account/password <mark style="background-color:green;">(admin/admin).</mark>
4. Check the information on **Network Connectivity** and take action if necessary.&#x20;

![ECW AP's Local Access Page](https://content.gitbook.com/content/d7AibbXDBWxY5VibQXUs/blobs/Fnnu8NRnzh9YkMwl1cIr/ecw1_0.png)

{% hint style="info" %}
<mark style="color:blue;">**Change IP Assignment Settings**</mark>

By default, the EnGenius Cloud Access Point (ECW series) is assigned an IP address dynamically by the DHCP server. If you encounter issues with IP address assignment, please double-check the IP setting, including IP address, subnet mask, gateway, proxy, and management VLAN. If the issue still exists, you may change your IP assignment from "_**DHCP mode**_" to "_**Static IP**_" via the following procedure.

1. Go to the **Local Setting** section.
2. &#x20;Change IPv4 settings to "_**Use Static IP**_".
3. Configure the _**IP address, gateway, subnet mask, and proxy**_ settings.
4. Reconnect this device to the LAN network and try again.
