VAP2400 Wireless Video Bridge Installation Manual 5
Installation and Overview
1
The VAP2400 enables you to transmit multiple standard- and high-definition video streams throughout your home
wirelessly. You can enjoy a full range of video services and applications without having to run wires, lay cables,
or drill holes. The VAP2400 uses one-button, Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) technology to ensure easy, reliable
installation.
The VAP2400 operates via two (or more) integrated units. You’ll dedicate one unit as the Access Point and
the other unit (or units) as its Client. When you connect a VAP to your home gateway, it auto-configures as an
Access Point. The Access Point streams content to the Client, which you’ll connect to a secondary set-top in
a different location in your home. (The Client auto-configures as well when you connect it to the set-top.) The
following graphic illustrates this setup:

Installing Your VAP2400 (Dual Units)
Follow the instructions below to install your Access Point and Client.
Step 1: Install the Access Point
1. Connect one VAP unit to your Home Gateway using the provided Ethernet cable. Before you connect the
VAP, ensure the Gateway is powered on.
2. Connect the power adapter to the VAP and plug the adapter into a wall outlet. You’ll see the power LED
on the unit’s front panel light green, indicating the unit is powered:
. Check to ensure the operational
mode LED lights green, indicating the VAP is functioning as an Access Point.

Step 2: Install the Client
1. Connect the second VAP unit to your secondary set-top box with the provided Ethernet cable. Before you
connect the VAP, ensure your set-top box is powered on.
Note: While you are required to connect your VAP to a set-top box to ensure the Access Point properly
streams video to the client, the VAP’s extra Ethernet ports provide you with the option of connecting other
devices to the unit as well, such as computers and gaming consoles.
2. Connect the power adapter to the VAP and plug the adapter into a wall outlet. You’ll see the power LED on
the unit’s front panel light green, indicating the unit is powered:

3. Wait 60 seconds after powering the VAP, and then press and hold the WPS button on the back of the Client
for two seconds. After doing so, you will have two minutes to return to the Access Point and press and
hold its WPS button. Pressing the buttons on both units enables them to establish a wireless connection.
Note: After you press the WPS button, the LED below it flashes green. If your connection is successful,
the LED will stop flashing, light solid green for approximately five minutes, and then extinguish. This is a
normal part of the process and does not mean you have lost your connection to the Access Point. If the
LED connection continues flashing, it indicates the unit has experienced an error. If this occurs, refer to
Troubleshooting, page 16.
4. The Client’s Wireless link LED lights green:
. You have now established a secure wireless connection
between the Access Point and the Client. Check to ensure the operational mode LED lights amber,
indicating the VAP is functioning as a Client. You now can begin streaming video content to your secondary
set-top box or boxes.
Installation and Overview
VAP2400 Wireless Video Bridge Installation Manual 12
Installing Additional VAP2400 Clients
Once you’ve installed your Access Point to your home gateway and established a wireless connection with your
Client, you can install additional VAP clients throughout your home. Follow the instructions below for each single
client unit you wish to install.
1. Connect the VAP to your secondary set-top box with the provided Ethernet cable. Before you connect the
VAP, ensure your set-top box is powered on.
Note: While you are required to connect your VAP to a set-top box to ensure it properly transfers video
throughout your home, the VAP’s extra Ethernet ports provide you with the option of connecting other
devices to the unit as well, such as computers and gaming consoles.
2. Connect the power adapter to the VAP and plug the adapter into a wall outlet. You’ll see the power LED on
the unit’s front panel light green, indicating the unit is powered:

Troubleshooting
If you cannot find a solution to your problem in this manual, or to otherwise get assistance with your VAP2400,
contact your service provider.
Solutions
If the solutions listed here do not solve your problem, try pressing the Reset button on the rear panel of the
Access Point and/or Client. Pressing and immediately releasing the Reset button resets the VAP to its current
settings. Pressing and holding the Reset button for more than five seconds will perform a factory default reset,
which you should do only if directed to do so by a technical service representative.
Problem Possible Solution
Power LED is off Check that the VAP2400 is properly plugged into the electrical outlet.
Check that the electrical outlet is working.
Press and immediately release the Reset button.
Cannot send or receive data Check that the Ethernet cable is properly connected to both the VAP2400 and your home
gateway/device.
Ensure you have not experienced an interruption in your cable or Internet service.
Ensure your home gateway is connected and functioning.
VAP cannot locate network Locate the WPS button on the VAP’s back panel. Press and hold the button until the
Wireless Link Quality LED lights solid green.
Operational Mode LED is blinking
amber
Access Point: Unplug the unit. Restart your gateway. After the gateway boots, plug in the
unit and wait for the LED to light green.
Client: If the LED continues blinking for more than 60 seconds, unplug the unit and then
plug it back into the outlet.

Troubleshooting
VAP2400 Wireless Video Bridge Installation Manual 16
Rapidly blinking WPS LED If the LED remains in this state for longer than two minutes, go to the unit’s back panel
and push the WPS button. The LED may continue flashing in a different pattern, rapidly
blinking for 1 second and then resting briefly before blinking again. If this occurs, wait
one to two minutes and then press the WPS button again.
Cannot configure a VAP unit as an
Access Point
If you cannot establish one of your units as an Access Point, it may indicate that your
router is not connected to your service provider’s network. (The operational mode LED
lights green on VAP units dedicated as Access Points and amber on VAP units dedicated
as Clients; see pp. 9–11 for more details.) If you experience this problem, contact your
service provider for assistance.
