4. Поставување и инсталација

4.1 Монтирање на уредот

The CF-WA350 is designed for outdoor pole or wall mounting. Use the provided stainless ties or appropriate mounting hardware to secure the device in a location with clear line of sight to the desired coverage area.

4.2 Вклучување

Connect the device to the PoE (Power over Ethernet) adapter using an Ethernet cable. Then, connect the PoE adapter to a power outlet using the provided power line. The device will power on automatically.

4.3 Почетна врска

For initial configuration, connect your computer directly to the LAN port of the PoE adapter using an Ethernet cable. Ensure your computer's IP address is set to obtain an IP address automatically (DHCP) or manually configure it to be in the same subnet as the device's default IP (e.g., 192.168.10.X).

5. Работни режими

The CF-WA350 supports multiple operating modes to suit various network requirements:

5.1 Режим на пристапна точка (AP)

In AP mode, the device connects to your existing wired network and broadcasts a wireless signal, allowing wireless clients to connect to the network. This is ideal for extending Wi-Fi coverage from a wired source.

5.2 Режим на повторувач

In Repeater mode, the device wirelessly extends the range of an existing Wi-Fi network. It receives the wireless signal from your main router and re-broadcasts it, effectively expanding your Wi-Fi coverage area without requiring a wired connection to the main router.

5.3 Режим на рутер

In Router mode, the device acts as a primary router, connecting to an internet source (e.g., a modem) via its WAN port and providing both wired and wireless network access to connected devices. This mode is suitable for setting up a new network.

6. Web Конфигурација на интерфејс

To configure the CF-WA350, access its web-базиран интерфејс за управување:

1. Ensure your computer is connected to the device (as described in Section 4.3).
2. Отвори a web прелистувач (на пример, Chrome, Firefox, Edge).
3. In the address bar, type the default IP address of the device (commonly 192.168.10.1 or similar, refer to the device label or quick installation guide for exact IP) and press Enter.
4. Внесете го стандардното корисничко име и лозинка (најчесто) admin for both, or as specified in the quick installation guide).
5. Once logged in, you can configure network settings, Wi-Fi SSIDs, security protocols, operating modes, and other advanced features. It is highly recommended to change the default login credentials for security purposes.

7. Одржување

Regular maintenance ensures optimal performance and longevity of your CF-WA350:

• Чистење: Periodically clean the exterior of the device to remove dust and debris. Use a soft, dry cloth. Do not use liquid cleaners or aerosols.
• Ажурирања на фирмверот: Check the COMFAST official webстраница за најновите ажурирања на фирмверот. Ажурирањето на фирмверот може да ги подобри перформансите, да додаде нови функции и да поправи грешки. Внимателно следете ги упатствата дадени со ажурирањето на фирмверот.
• Проверка на животната средина: Ensure the mounting location remains secure and free from obstructions that could interfere with the signal or damage the device.
• Инспекција на кабел: Periodically inspect Ethernet cables and power connections for any signs of wear or damage.

8 Смена на проблеми

If you encounter issues with your CF-WA350, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Без моќност:
  • Ensure the PoE adapter is properly connected to a working power outlet and the device.
  • Check the power line and Ethernet cable for damage.
• Не може да се пристапи Web Интерфејс:
  • Verify your computer's IP address is in the same subnet as the device's default IP.
  • Обидете се да го исчистите кешот на прелистувачот или да користите друг прелистувач.
  • Ensure the Ethernet cable connection is secure.
  • If the IP address has been changed and forgotten, you may need to perform a factory reset (see below).
• No Wi-Fi Signal or Weak Signal:
  • Check the device's status indicators to ensure it is operating correctly.
  • Verify Wi-Fi settings (SSID, password, channel) in the web интерфејс.
  • Ensure the device is mounted in an optimal location with minimal obstructions.
  • Adjust antenna orientation if applicable.
• Бавна брзина на интернет:
  • Check the speed of your internet connection directly from the source.
  • Ensure the device is operating in the correct mode (e.g., AP mode for wired backhaul).
  • Consider channel interference; try changing Wi-Fi channels in the web интерфејс.
  • Проверете дали фирмверот е ажуриран.
• Ресетирање на фабриката: If issues persist or you forget the login credentials, you can perform a factory reset. Locate the reset button (often a small pinhole) on the device. With the device powered on, press and hold the reset button for approximately 5-10 seconds until the indicators flash, then release. The device will revert to its default factory settings.
