• Installation Choices:
• After obtaining download simply run and follow the install program's instructions. The following screen shows the installation options:
  
  
  
  
  
  You can select or deselect each option. Run at Startup will place a shortcut in the StartUp group. Note: for WinNT/2000/XP the option to install the program as a service is not yet available in this release but you can use Microsoft's Srvany utility to run any application as a service.
                     Note: the actual initial space required is only 160KB excluding the installer.
  
  
• To uninstall ControlAP, simply run the uninstall.exe in the folder you installed it in or use the Add/Remove Control Panel applet. (Start button -> Settings)
  
  
• Uninstalling will remove all files except for log files (in the log folder) as well as web files in the web folder.
  
  
• Hardware Installation:
  
  
• Network Settings:
  From Network Settings for your Wireless Network Adapter (or adapter connected to your external AP) you must specify a static IP address.
  
  Control Panel ->  Network and Dial-up Connections -> (select the adapter from the list) -> Properties (File or right-click) -> Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) -> Properties
  
  Specify a IP address e.g. 192.168.1.1 (recommended for external APs that use 192.168.1.251 such as LinkSys)
  
  Examples of valid legal  IP address to use as a static address are: 192.168.x.x 10.x.x.x and 127.x.x.x These are valid as private addresses  for local  networks (even though this private network will be used publicly). Just make sure you don't use the same subnet e.g. 192.168.1.x as the internet network adapter connected to your router/modem.
  
    Subnet mask: 255.255.255.0
    (leave Gateway and DNS servers blank)
