I am attempting to configure the WAC124 as an access point on my home network. I have turned off DHCP and set the lan to use address 192.168.0.68 in the LAN section of setup. I am able to connect to the WAC through my network but it does not have any internet access. I have a motorola MG8702 modem router located at 192.168.0.1. I am assuming that I need to modify the settings in the Internet Setup section of the setup menu. Looking at other posts on the web they have mention setting the default gateway and dns server to 192.168.0.1, they do not mention what the IP address should be. So 2 questions come up. Firstly should I use the ip of my router or the ip of the WAC or some mystical ip I have which I have no clue about. Secondly when I use the ip of my motorola for all 3 fields I get the "Invalid gateway IP Address" message but no information on why it is invalid. Any help would be much appreciated.
So after checking out some more values in the advanced setup menu I found the entry to enable the unit as an access point, no need to go through the rigamarole that is posted on other sites.
Resetting the unit it comes up in Router mode. I went to the setup LAN setup screen and unchecked the Use Router as DHCP server and changed the IP to 192.168.0.68.
