ALARM COM ADC-W110 PoE to Wi-Fi Bridge
Pre-installation checklist
- ADC-W110 PoE to Wi-Fi Bridge (included)
- Standard non-switched electrical outlet
- Broadband (Cable, DSL or Fiber Optic) Internet connection with router
- A computer, tablet, or smartphone with Internet access is required if the router does not have the Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) feature
- An Alarm.com Power over Ethernet video camera with Ethernet cable
NOTE: There are two options for connecting the W110 to the wireless network: Access Point (AP) mode or Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) mode. Use WPS mode if you have easy access to the customer’s router and the router has the WPS feature enabled. Note that some Internet Service Providers disable the WPS feature on customer routers. AP mode is the most reliable method for installing this device.
Connect the PoE to Wi-Fi Bridge to the Wireless Network
AP Mode
Complete these steps to connect the W110 to a wireless network using AP mode.
- Plug the W110 into an electrical outlet that is within range of the customer’s Wi-Fi network. Wait for the Wi-Fi LED to begin blinking white.
- On an Internet enabled device, connect to the wireless network “W110 (XX:XX:XX)” where XX:XX:XX is the last six characters of the W110’s MAC address, which is located on the back of the W110 or on the packaging.
- On the same device, open a web browser and enter “http://w110install” in the URL field. Follow the on-screen instructions to add the W110 to the wireless network. The Wi-Fi LED will turn solid white and the Communication LED will turn solid green when a successful connection is made.
- Connect the PoE camera to the port at the bottom of the W110 using an Ethernet cable.
- Follow the installation instructions included with the camera to add it to an account.
WPS Mode
Complete these steps to connect the W110 to a wireless network using WPS mode.
- Plug the W110 into a non-switched electrical outlet that is within range of the customer’s Wi-Fi network. Wait for the Wi-Fi LED to begin blinking white.
- Press and hold the Communication button until the Wi-Fi LED turns off and the Communication LED begins blinking green (approximately 2 to 6 seconds).
- Activate WPS mode on the router. The W110 will begin to connect to the wireless network. The Wi-Fi LED will turn solid white and the Communication LED will turn solid green when a successful connection is made.
- Connect the PoE camera to the port at the bottom of the W110 using an Ethernet cable.
- Follow the installation instructions included with the camera to add it to an account.

Troubleshooting
If the W110 has already been added to a wireless network (indicated by the W110 not entering AP mode after powering on) and you want to change networks:
- To enter WPS mode, press and hold the Communication button until the Communication LED begins blinking green (approximately 2 to 6 seconds). Follow the WPS mode instructions from step 3 on page 3.
- To enter AP mode, press and hold the Communication button until the Wi-Fi LED begins blinking white (approximately 7 to 11 seconds). Follow the AP mode instructions from step 2 on page 2.
If you have issues connecting the W110 to the wireless network, power cycle
the device and try again. Also be sure that the wireless network is working
properly and that you typed in the correct network password (SSID).
If the issues persist, try resetting the W110 to factory defaults by holding
down the Communication button for 12 seconds or until the Wi-Fi and
Communication LEDs begin blinking red. Try the installation instructions
again.
WARNING: This will restore factory-default settings to the device. Any
associated
Wi-Fi networks will be removed.
The W110 is specifically designed for use with Alarm.com Power over Ethernet
video cameras.
Use with other devices is not recommended.
