4.4 Wireless Station Configuration

This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the WN-300ARM-VPN's Access Point, regardless

of the operating system which is used on the client.

To use the Wireless Access Point in the WN-300ARM-VPN, each Wireless Station must have compatible

settings, as follows:

Mode

The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)

Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.

SSID (ESSID)

This must match the value used on the WN-300ARM-VPN. The default value is

Wireless.

Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

Wireless

Security

By default, Wireless security on the WN-300ARM-VPN is disabled.

 If Wireless security remains disabled on the WN-300ARM-VPN, all stations

must have wireless security disabled.

 If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router (either WEP or

WPA-PSK), each station must use the same settings as the Wireless

ADLS Router.

4.5 Wireless Configuration on Windows XP

If using Windows XP to configure the Wireless interface on your PC, the configuration procedure is as follows:

1. Open the Network Connections folder. (Start - Settings - Network Connections)

Figure: Network Connections (Windows XP)

2. Right-click the Wireless Network Connection, check that it is enabled (menu option says Disable, rather

than Enable) and then select View Available Wireless Networks.

3. You will then see a list of wireless networks.
