Editing a Network Profile

The Factory Defaults profile for a SLA5500 cannot be edited. However, there are other profiles available that can be edited to effectively create new profiles. To change these settings, you will need to have some knowledge of your wireless network setup.

Note: The alternative profiles can be edited at any time, but any existing information in the selected profile will be overwritten once the profile has been edited and saved.

1Display the profile to be edited (see ‘Viewing Existing Network Profiles’).

2Give your profile a unique Profile Name.

3Enter the Service Set ID (SSID) for your wireless LAN.

4By default, the profile will use the Infrastructure network type (i.e. an Internet base station is available on the network). If however you select the Allow ad-hoc connection checkbox, it means that your PC will use a direct peer-to-peer connection to the SLA5500.

•If you are using WEP encryption on the wireless network, click the WEP enabled checkbox and enter the appropriate WEP key and the Key index.

•If you are using a proxy server, check the Use proxy server checkbox.

Enter the Proxy server as an IP address (example 192.167.0.10) or as a name (example my.proxy). The Proxy port number must be a numeric value (usually, this is port 80 or 8080).

5If the SLA5500 will get a dynamic IP address automatically from a DHCP server, select the Use DHCP checkbox.

6If the SLA5500 needs a fixed IP address, leave the Use DHCP checkbox unchecked and enter the IP Address for the SLA5500, as well as the Netmask (Subnet mask), and IP addresses for the Gateway, DNS Server Preferred and DNS Server Alternate.

7Click the ‘Apply’ button to confirm the changes, or click the ‘Refresh’ button to discard the changes.

8If you want to make this profile the active profile for the SLA5500, click the ‘Make Active’ button. Click the ‘Close’ button to return to the main window.

9Click the ‘Discover...’ button to verify that the SLA5500 can still be found on the network after you make these changes.

Note: This task can also be done directly on the SLA5500 using the remote control.
