Add/Edit Configuration Profile:

The Add/Edit Configuration Profile allows the user to set the PCMCIA card as an Access Point, Residential Gateway, Peer to Peer Group or Act as a Base station, accordingly.

Note:

The Add/Edit Configuration Profile is not available for Windows XP. The networking configuration of WL11A+ would be done in Windows XP. (See Chapter 6 Wireless Network Configuration in Windows XP) The Client Manager program can still be used for diagnostics.

The different connections are shown in the following diagrams for you to easily understand how to configure your Compex WL11A+. Note: Residential Gateway and Access Point serve the same function.
