EnGenius 2610 / 1650 client router configuration.

If you purchased on of our bridge kits you will need 2 standard straight through ethernet cables available at your local store.  One cable will run from your computer to the power injector the other from the PoE side of the injector to the bridge up to 300 feet away.  You will also need to switch the antenna over to external ( next to the connector).
