Напојување преку етернет (PoE) конекција

The device is powered using the included 24V PoE adapter. Connect an Ethernet cable from the LAN port of the PoE adapter to the Ethernet port on the COMFAST AP. Then, connect another Ethernet cable from your router or network switch to the PoE port of the adapter. This setup allows both power and data to be transmitted over a single Ethernet cable, simplifying outdoor wiring.

Почетна конфигурација

After physical installation and power connection, you will need to configure the device via its web-based management interface. Typically, you connect a computer directly to the PoE adapter's LAN port or to the same network segment as the AP. Refer to the included user manual for the default IP address, username, and password to access the web interface. From there, you can select the desired operating mode (Repeater, AP, or Router) and configure network settings such as SSID, security, and IP address.

Работни режими

The COMFAST AC1200 supports multiple operating modes to suit various networking needs:

Режим на повторувач

In Repeater mode, the device extends the range of an existing wireless network. It receives the Wi-Fi signal from your main router and re-broadcasts it, effectively expanding the coverage area. This is ideal for eliminating Wi-Fi dead zones in large outdoor spaces.

Режим на пристапна точка (АП)

As an Access Point, the device connects to a wired network (e.g., via an Ethernet cable from your router) and broadcasts a new wireless network. This mode is suitable for adding Wi-Fi capability to a wired network or creating a new Wi-Fi hotspot in an outdoor location.

Режим на рутер

In Router mode, the device acts as a primary network device, connecting directly to an internet source (e.g., a modem) and providing both wired and wireless connectivity to multiple devices. This mode is typically used when the device is the main point of internet access for a network.

Решавање проблеми

If you encounter issues with your COMFAST AC1200, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:

• Нема напојување/LED диоди исклучено: Ensure the PoE adapter is properly connected to a power outlet and the Ethernet cable from the adapter is securely plugged into the AP. Check the power source.
• Нема Wi-Fi сигнал: Verify that the device is powered on and configured correctly in the desired operating mode (Repeater, AP, Router). Check the SSID broadcast settings in the web интерфејс.
• Бавна брзина на поврзување: Ensure the device is placed in an optimal location with minimal interference. Check for other devices operating on the same Wi-Fi channels and consider changing channels. Verify your internet connection speed from the source.
• Не може да се пристапи Web Интерфејс: Confirm your computer's IP address is on the same subnet as the AP's default IP (e.g., if AP is 192.168.1.1, set your computer to 192.168.1.X). Try resetting the device to factory defaults (refer to the manual for reset instructions).
• Наизменично поврзување: Check for physical obstructions or sources of interference. Ensure the firmware is up to date.
