2.Then make the necessary connections (PCs, modem) to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable and switch the device on (see section "Connecting the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable" on page 19).

3.Before the PCs can communicate with the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable and with each other in a local network, you have to change their network settings.

To find out how to do this, refer to "Configuring the local network" on page 23.

4.In a wireless connection you establish the link from the PC's wireless network adapt- er to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable. This is described in the user guide for the network adapter.

5.Then configure the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable to activate the device's Internet access (refer to the section "Basic Setup Wizard" on page 56). This will require the access data from your Internet service provider.

uIf you want to connect more PCs to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable, configure their network settings so as to set up the local network (refer to the section entitled "Configuring the local network" on page 23).

uIf you want to use the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable's other functions e.g. the com- prehensive security features, use the router's Security Setup (see page 61) or the Advanced Settings menu (see page 70).
