16CHAPTER 2: INSTALLING THE ETHERNET ADAPTER

Connecting to an The Ethernet Adapter is designed to be connected to an Ethernet client Ethernet Device device such as a hub, computer, or printer.

CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of a transmission loop situation between the Ethernet Adapter and an access point, which could disrupt network operation, do not connect a Ethernet Adapter that is set in Wireless Client (Infrastructure) mode directly to the LAN (for example, through a wall port or through a hub that is connected directly to the LAN).

VORSICHT: Um eine Übertragungsschleife zwischen dem Ethernet-Adapter und einem Access Point zu verhindern, die den Netzwerkbetrieb stören könnte, darf ein im Modus Wireless Client (Infrastructure) (Drahtloser Client [Infrastruktur]) eingerichteter Ethernet-Adapter nicht direkt mit dem LAN verbunden werden (z. B. über eine Wandbuchse oder über einen direkt mit dem LAN verbundenen Hub).

About the Client List The Ethernet Adapter supports up to 16 specific Ethernet client devices. It uses a client list of MAC addresses to keep track of specific devices that have been connected.

After 16 different devices have been connected, the client list is full, and you must clear it before the next new device can associate with the network through the Ethernet Adapter.

To clear the list, you must access the Ethernet Adapter’s Configuration Management System. Details are in “Clearing the Ethernet Client List” on page 49.
