Configuring Wireless Connections
If you want to connect PCs in wireless mode via the Gigaset SE105 dsl/cable, you will have to configure the router as an Access point. Use Wireless Settings for this configuration. Here you can
◆activate the router's wireless module (see below),
◆change the wireless channel and the Service Set ID (SSID) of the router (see below) and
◆set Encryption for wireless transmissions (see page 72).
Activating the wireless module
Wireless devices can register with your router only if its wireless module has been activated.
◆Open the Wireless menu.
◆Activate the wireless module on Wireless Settings.
◆Click on APPLY.
Setting the Channel and SSID
Before wireless network components can communicate with each other, you have to use a shared wireless channel and the same SSID (Service Set Identifier).
The Gigaset SE105 dsl/cable comes supplied with the SSID configured
asConnectionPoint. For security reasons, it is advisable to change this SSID and deactivate the broadcast function (SSID visible).
◆In the Wireless menu, select Channel and SSID.
