To the PC

You can connect wired or wireless PCs to your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable to create
a local network (

LAN

).

Wireless
A wireless connection is made using a wireless network adapter that must be installed
in your PC. This can be, for example, a Gigaset PC Card 108, a Gigaset USB Adapter 108
or another Super G, 802.11g or 802.11b-compatible wireless network adapter.
You define a

Radio network

by assigning all the devices an identical

SSID

. You should

therefore assign the SSID of the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable to the network adapters.
The factory set SSID is ConnectionPoint.
If the correct SSID has been entered in your PC's wireless network adapter, the wireless
link will be established automatically once you connect your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/
cable to the mains power supply (see page 20).
