3.2.3Configuring PC Access to the Ericsson W20

The configuration steps below will vary depending on both the operating system and the wireless LAN interface installed on the PC. These steps provide a basic outline. For specific instructions, refer to the documentation provided with your wireless LAN interface.

Configure the following wireless parameters on each of the wireless PCs:

−Set the wireless LAN interface to use infrastructure mode. This configures the PCs to access each other and the Internet through the Ericsson W20.

−Configure the network name (SSID) and channel to match the network name and channel configured on the Ericsson W20. This information can usually be obtained through WLAN scanning. The network name is case sensitive.

−If you are using Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) security, configure the same encryption key that is configured on the Ericsson W20.

−If you are using Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA or WPA2) security, configure the same pass phrase that is configured on the Ericsson W20. The pass phrase is case sensitive.

−Configure the IP settings using the procedure described in section 3.1 – “Configuring Internet Settings”.

3.3File Sharing Settings

When a USB mass storage device is connected to the Ericsson W20, information about the device is displayed on the File Sharing page.

In some cases, you have to make sure that your PC belongs to the same workgroup as the Ericsson W20. Follow the instructions in section 3.3.2 – “Checking Workgroup Settings” to check the workgroup on your PC.

If you want to configure a network drive mapping to a shared device, follow the instructions in section 3.3.3 – ”Setting Up a Mapping to a Storage Device”.
