Wireless Station Configuration

This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the ADSL Wireless Firewall Router's Access Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.

To use the Wireless Access Point in the ADSL Wireless Firewall Router, each Wireless Station must have compatible settings, as follows:

Mode

The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)

 

Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.

 

 

SSID (ESSID)

This must match the value used on the ADSL Wireless Firewall

 

Router. The default value is wireless.

 

Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

 

 

WEP

By default, WEP on the ADSL Wireless Firewall Router is dis-

 

abled.

 

If WEP remains disabled on the ADSL Wireless Firewall

 

Router, all stations must have WEP disabled.

 

If WEP is enabled on the ADSL Wireless Firewall Router,

 

each station must use the same settings as the ADSL Wire-

 

less Firewall Router.
