Configure ALFA Tube 2H as WiFi Client / Station

Below, we provide a step-by-step illustrated guide for setting up the ALFA Tube-2H as a WiFi client.

First, connect the ALFA Tube-2H to the port labeled "POE" on the PoE injector using a network cable. Then, connect a computer, laptop, or netbook to the port labeled "LAN" on the PoE injector using another network cable.

Now, open your browser and enter the IP address 192.168.2.1 to access the configuration interface.

If the page cannot be found, you may need to assign a static IP address to the computer you are using to configure the Tube-2H. Here’s how to do it:

In the bottom right corner of your Windows desktop, next to the clock, there is a computer icon. Right-click on it and select "Open Network and Sharing Center."


Click on "LAN Connection."
