Physical installation

MW models only: connect the WLAN cards

2.Connect the gateway's power cord plug into an earthed wall mains socket.

3.Switch on the power on your gateway.

Use filters if you want to use telephone and Internet simultaneously

Use in-line filters to block the high-frequency signals (data) from travelling through the phone cord to your telephone, fax or answering machine. DSL and HomePNA use the high bandwidth of your telephone line to transmit and receive data.

Use approved filters only and install them according to the manufacturer's instructions.

4.4Installing an external WLAN antenna (MW series only)

To obtain a better coverage for your wireless network, you can use external antennas.

With Nokia C111 WLAN card, up to two external antennas can be used.

If you use only one external antenna, connect the external antenna to the right antenna connector of the wireless LAN card. See figure 7.

Install the external antenna on the wall or on the ceiling according to figure 8. For further information, refer to the WLAN card User's Guide.
