Configuring wireless connections

If you want to connect PC's together in wireless mode with the Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable,

then you must configure the router as the

Access point

of a wireless network (

WLAN

).

You should also take steps to enhance the security of your wireless network. Use

Wireless Settings for this configuration. Here you can

activate the router's wireless module and make a number of basic settings (see

below),

set

Encryption

for wireless transmissions (see page 74), and

restrict access to the router's LAN (see page 75).

Basic Settings

Use this screen to configure your router as the

Access point

for a wireless LAN. You can

enable or disable the wireless module and make other settings for wireless operation.

In the Wireless Settings menu, select Basic Settings.

Wireless network
Wireless devices cannot log in to your router unless its wireless module has been

activated. You should therefore enable this option.
