4.6.4 Example Network Configuration
In this example, your notebook has a wired connection to the company network (N) and
receives an IP address automatically from the company DHCP server. It has a wireless
connection to the WPA-1000. The WPA-1000 is set to use its default IP address and is also set
to be a DHCP server.

default SSID is ZyXEL. It is recommended you change this to a unique SSID in
order to identify your WPA-1000 in the wireless network list.

the WPA-1000’s wireless network must be use the same channel. Select a
channel that is not being used by other APs in the vicinity.
WEP

Disable, then anyone within range nay connect to the WPA-1000 without need of
a password.

1000 and wireless clients. If you choose 128-bit WEP, then enter 13 ASCII

digits here.
