Chapter 5: Setting Up the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge

Now that you’ve connected the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge to your wired network, you are ready to set it up. The Setup Wizard will guide you through all the necessary steps.

1.Insert the Setup CD-ROM into your PC’s CD-ROM drive. The Setup Utility should run automatically, and the screen in Figure 5-1 should appear. If it does not, click the Start button and choose Run. In the field that appears, enter D:\setup.exe (if “D” is the letter of your CD-ROM drive).

•Setup - Click the Setup button to proceed with the Setup Wizard.

•User Guide - Click the User Guide button to open the PDF file of this User Guide.

•LINKSYS Web - Click the LINKSYS Web button to access the Linksys website using an active Internet connection.

•Exit - Click the Exit button to exit the Setup Wizard.

2.Click the Setup button to begin the setup process.

3.Make sure the Bridge is correctly connected to your wired network (see Figure 5-2). Then click the Next button.

Note: While the Wireless-G Ethernet Bridge has been designed to work correctly right out of the box, setting it up on a wireless computer will require you to use the Linksys default settings (SSID: linksys and mode: infrastructure). These settings can then be changed through the Bridge’s Setup Wizard or Web-based Utility.
