First Steps

To the mains power supply

Please remember:

Only use the router with the mains adapter (12V 1A DC) that is supplied.

ìConnect the mains adapter cable to the 12V DC socket on the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable.

ìPlug the mains adapter into a mains socket.

Your Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable is now ready for use.

uThe power LED on the front lights up.

uThe WLAN LED lights up to indicate that the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable is ready to open wireless connections.

The radio link to a PC that is connected by means of a wireless network adapter is opened automatically provided the network adapter has been configured with the same SSID as the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable (see page 21). It can take a few sec- onds for the wireless connection to be established. The WLAN LED flashes when data is sent or received via this connection.

uThe LAN LEDs light up if a device is connected to the corresponding LAN connection by means of an Ethernet cable.

In order to communicate via the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable, the network must be configured on the connected PC. This usually takes place automatically.

You will find information on how to operate devices on the USB port of the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable on page 110 for printers, on page 83 for external bulk memories, and in the document "Gigaset WLAN. Practical tips" on the supplied CD.
