Beginner’s SETUP GUIDE for NANOSTATION-2 as receiver and other Ubiquity devices using AirOS firmware V3.6

(Windows/MacOS)

This guide is primarily intended for mobile users (boaters, campers and truckers) who often change access points. Fixed users can also use it, although there might be other more suitable configurations for them.
Make sure the Nanostation 2 (Nano for short) is connected to your computer’s network card with network cables, via the power injector (supplied with 12V either from the included wall-wart or another 12VDC source). There should then be at least one LED lit on the back of the Nanostation.
On the original Nanostation shipping box, find and write down the default IP address (we assume:
192.168.1.20), the user name and password (should both be “ubnt”). Do not loose this information!
1) Set your computer to communicate with Nanostation
1a) Windows
1b) Mac OS X
2) Program Nanostation as receiver (station) and router
3) Choose and connect to a WIFI signal
