Safety precautions
u The device is only allowed for operation in enclosed rooms (temperature range: 0 to
40°C). Do not use the device in a damp or wet environment, with dust or vapours.
u The device may affect medical equipment.
u Make sure you include the operating instructions and the CD-ROM when you pass
on your device to somebody else.
Notes on secure operation
The Gigaset USB Adapter 300 supports WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup). This means that if
your access point also supports WPS, you can set up all security settings automatically
and connect with your access point very simply (see page 21).
If you are not using WPS, you should make some security settings on the wireless net-
work as soon as you have installed the Gigaset USB Adapter 300 on your PC:
u Change the SSID for all wireless devices in your network
(see "SSID (Service Set Identifier)" on page 28).
u Encrypt the communication over your wireless network (see "Configuration – Secu-
rity" on page 31).
Your contribution to the environment (ECO)
We at Gigaset Communications GmbH make our products as environmen-
tally compatible as possible. Our goal is a sustainable process that makes it
easier for us to comply with the strict stipulations of the ISO standard 14001
for international environmental management.
Further advantages for the ecology
u Thanks to a switched-mode power supply, all our routers and repeaters use up to
60% less power and so offer higher energy efficiency.
u You can reduce the WLAN's transmitting power for all routers and repeaters and
some WLAN clients – depending on the device in question and your PC's operating
system.
u You can turn off the WLAN completely.
