2.6 Wireless LAN

A Wireless LAN (WLAN) is a local network that communicates through
wireless connections.
The Ericsson W21 can be used as a WLAN Access Point (AP), connecting
to wireless PCs according to the IEEE standard 802.11b/g, providing
Internet and LAN access.
The WLAN settings are displayed on the Wireless LAN web page. To
ensure the security of your Wireless LAN, you are recommended to change
the default settings for SSID and authentication.
