Step 3 (Continued): Notes on AOSS

•The AOSS button is also the INIT button. Don’t hold the button down for too long! One second is sufficient. If you hold the button down for 5 seconds or more, AOSS will cease and the WZR-G240 will initialize all settings. You’ll then have to restart configuration from the beginning.

•If your client device doesn’t support AOSS, or you just want to configure your wireless network manually, turn to page 6.

•After pushing the AOSS button on the first device, you have two minutes to push the AOSS button on the other device. If it times out, just push the first button again and start over.

•On many Buffalo client devices, the AOSS button is in the client software. If you don’t see an AOSS button on the device, check the documentation for instructions on installing the client software and where to push or click the AOSS button.

•To connect non-AOSS devices to your AOSS network, you can get the necessary network information from the System Information page in the AirStation Configuration Utility.

•AOSS connects your wireless clients to your access point. It doesn’t set up your internet connection for you. To connect to the internet, you may still have to run your router configuration utility, even if you are using AOSS.

•Only one AOSS wireless client adapter can be configured with the AOSS router at a time. The AOSS button will need to be re-pressed to connect each additional AOSS wireless client.

•It is not necessary to re-AOSS client devices that have already been configured via AOSS, unless significant changes have been made to the wireless network.

•Do not attempt to configure two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as it may cause undesired configurations.

•If an undesired client has connected via AOSS, it can be disconnected from within the WZR-G240’s advanced configuration menus.
