Setup

The AdaLov CPE882 wireless bridges come pre-configured for point-to-point operation, simplifying the initial setup. Follow these steps for installation:

1. Mounting: Securely mount each bridge in a location that provides a clear line of sight to the other bridge. Use the provided tube clamps for pole mounting or wall hole bushings for wall mounting.
2. Power Connection: Connect each bridge to its respective PoE injector using an Ethernet cable. Plug the PoE injector into a power outlet.
3. Network Connection: Connect the LAN port of the primary PoE injector to your router or network switch. Connect the LAN port of the secondary PoE injector to your end device (e.g., PC, IP camera, secondary router).
4. Verification: Once powered on, the bridges will automatically attempt to pair. Check the LED indicators on the side of the bridges to confirm a successful connection and signal strength.

Operating Modes

The CPE882 bridges can operate in different modes to suit your network extension needs:

• AP Bridge Mode: One bridge acts as an Access Point (AP), transmitting the network signal.
• Station Bridge Mode: The other bridge acts as a Station, receiving the network signal.

The devices are pre-configured for a simple point-to-point connection. They support dual-band WiFi 6, utilizing both 2.4GHz for longer range and 5.8GHz for higher speeds.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your AdaLov CPE882 wireless bridge, consider the following:

• Power Check: Ensure both bridges and their PoE injectors are properly powered and connected.
• Cable Connections: Verify all Ethernet cables are securely plugged into the correct ports.
• Line of Sight: Confirm there is a clear, unobstructed line of sight between the two bridges for optimal signal transmission. Physical barriers like buildings or dense trees can degrade performance.
• LED Indicators: Refer to the LED indicators on the side of the bridges to diagnose connection status and signal strength.
• Reset: If issues persist, perform a factory reset on both devices (refer to the user manual for specific instructions).
