Assemble and install the CPE
- Step1: Assemble the CPE.
1. Align the two bolts on one side of the center reflector panel with the long screw holes (the larger end) on the side reflector panel. Slide the center and side reflector panels in the opposite direction until the bolts fit into the smaller end. Tips
You may have to prepare a Phillips screwdriver, gloves and other tools to
assemble and install the CPE.
2. Repeat 3 to fix another side reflector panel.
3. Remove the Ethernet port cover from the CPE seat. Align the slots of the CPE seat with the abutted edges of the center reflector panel and side reflector panels, and four hooks of the CPE seat with the four slots of the center reflector panel.
4. Press the CPE seat to fix it on the center reflector panel. **NOTE** To Note: prevent the deformation of the reflector panels and decreasing of
bridging quality, DO NOT face the reflector panels down and put them on a desk
or a horizontal plane while and after fixing the CPE seat.
5. Fix the reflector panels with the included screws.
6. Insert the CPE into the CPE seat from the front side of the center reflector panel.-
Step2: Install the CPE
TIP
Before installation, please set up the CPE according to the application scenario you need.-
Use a screwdriver to open the metal strap by turning the screw counter-clockwise. Put the universal shaft into the universal shaft fastener and fix the universal shaft and universal shaft fastener on the pole using the metal strap (Connect the two ends of the metal strap and use the screw driver to adjust the tightness).
-
Direct the CPE seat at the universal shaft fastener, and screw the universal shaft fastener to fix the CPE (Ensure an appropriate tightness for you to adjust the orientation of the CPE later).
-
Connect the PoE injector to a power source and its PoE port to the PoE/LAN port of the CPE using an Ethernet cable. The PoE/LAN LED indicator of the CPE lights up.
-
Adjust the orientation of the CPE to the horizontal with the bubble level.
When the LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators all light up after installation, it indicates that the best location is found. -
Fasten the universal shaft fastener and fix the Ethernet port cover.
-
Set up the CPEs (AP mode+ Client mode)
Option 1: Automatic bridging (recommended)
Tips
Automatic bridging only works for CPEs in factory settings.
Peer-to-peer automatic bridging could fail if three or more powered CPEs in
factory settings are placed nearby.
After the bridging succeeds, the DHCP server of the CPEswill be disabled
automatically. The IP address of the
CPE working in AP mode remains 192.168.2.1,and the IP eddress of the CPE
working in Client mode is changed into192.168.2.2.
- Step1: Place two CPEs in factory settings next to each other.
- Step2: Use Ethernet cables to connect the PoE/LAN port of the CPEs to the PoE port of the PoE injectors.
- Step3: Use the included power adapters to connect the PoE injectors to power sources. The PoE/LAN LED indicators of the two CPEs light up.
The LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators of the two CPEs blink fast. When the LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators of one CPE light solid on and those of the other CPE blink slow, the automatic bridging succeeds.
Tips
If the automatic bridging fails, restore the two CPEs to factofy settings and try again.
To restore a CPE to factory settings, hold down the RESET button on the CPE for about 8 seconds and release it when all indicators light up, When the PoEJLAN LED indicator lights solid on again, the CPE is restored to factory settings,
Option 2: Manual bridging
- Step1: Place two CPEs next to each other.
- Step2: Power on CPE1 and connect it to a computer.
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the PoE/LAN port of the CPE1 to the PoE port of the PoE injector.
2. Use the included power adapter to connect the PoE injector to a power source. The PoE/LAN LED indicator of CPE1 lights up.
3. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the LAN port of the PoE injector to a computer.- Step3: Set CPE1 to AP mode.
1. Start a web browser on the computer and visit 192.168.2.1. Enter the login user name and password and click **Login. Tips:** if the login page does not appear, please refer to 01 in FAQ.
2. Select AP, and click Next.
3. Customize your SSID (WiFi name) and Key (WiFi password), select a Channel, a Security Mode (WPA2-PSK is recommended), and an Encryption Algorithm. Click Next. Record the SSID and Key for later setup. 
-
Step4: Set CPE2 to Client mode.
-
Perform Step 2 to power on the CPE2 and connect it to a computer. 8 Start a web browser on the computer and visit 192.168.2.1. Enter the login user name and password and click Login.
-
Select Client, and click Next.
-
Select the SSID of CPE1, which is Tenda_123456 in this example, and click Next.
-
Enter the Key of CPE1, and click Next.
-
Set the IP address to an unused one belonging to the same network segment as that of CPE1. For example, if the IP address of CPE1 is 192.168.2.1, you can set this device’s IP address to 192.168.2.X (X ranges from 2 to 254). Then click Next.
-
Click Save, and wait until the CPE reboots automatically to activate the settings.
Tips:
It the login page does not appear, please refer to Q1 in FAQ. -
Click Save, and wait until the CPE reboots to activate the settings.
When the LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators of CPE1 light solid on, and the LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators of CPE2 blink, the bridging succeeds and the DHCP servers of the two CPEs are disabled automatically.
-
Scenario 2: Wireless ISP hotspot access
Set up the CPE
- Step1: Power on the CPE and connect it to a computer.
1. Use an Ethernet cable to connect the PoE/LAN port of the CPE to the PoE port of the PoE injector.
2. Use the included power adapter to connect the PoE injector to a power source. 0 Connect a computer to the LAN port of the PoE injector.- Step2: Set the CPE to WISP mode.
1. Start a web browser on the computer and visit 192.168.2.1. Enter your user name and password and click Login. **Tips:** If the login page does not appear, please refer to Q1 in FAQ.
2. SelectWISP,and click Next.

Appendix FAQ
-
Q1.I cannot log in to the web Ul of the CPE by entering 192.168.2.1. What should ldo?
A1. Try the following solutions:- Ensure that the CPE is connected to a power source and your computer properly.
- Ensure that the IP address of the computer is set to an unused one, such as 192.168.2.X (X ranges from 2 – 254).
- Restore the CPE to factory settings,and try again.
-
Q2: How to check that the CPE Is under the bast connection status?
A2: Try the following methods:
Method 1: Observe the LED indicators of the CPE. The connection quality reaches the best when the LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators of the CPEs light solid on or blink.
Method 2: Log in to the web UI of one CPE (the default IP address is 192.168.2.1), and check the bridging status in Status> Wireless Status.
Stronger signal strength (-60 dBm is better than -70 dBm) and less background noise (-100 dBm is better than -90 dBm) lead to better bridging signaL
-
Q3: After the bridging succeeds, the LED1, LED2 and LED3 Indicators do not light up or only some of them do. What should I do?
A3: Try the following solutions:- Ensure that the bridging distance between the CPEs is within the normal range.
- Place the CPEs in an elevated location at the same height with few obstacles nearby.
- Make slight direction adjustment of the CPEs by moving it vertically and horizontally. Change the direction with an interval of 20-30 s each time in order to observe the change of LED1, LED2 and LED3 indicators until the best signal is received.
