Chapter 5: Setting Up a WLAN

This chapter applies exclusively to Wireless Setup (a/b/g) and Wireless

Setup (b/g).

Wireless Setup (a/b/g)

supports IEEE 802.11a and IEEE 802.11g/b wireless

LAN connections simultaneously.

supports IEEE 802.11b and IEEE 802.11g wireless LAN

connections simultaneously.

Whether you’re a home user or a network administrator, a WLAN
implementation will allow your roaming users to enjoy network

resources anywhere, anytime. It also provides convenience, and cost
savings, since deploying WLANs is less costly than setting up cables.


The next sections involve the following:

Wireless Security Settings

Advanced Settings
