Connecting Wireless To The Pc - Gigaset SX763 Manual

First steps

Connecting wireless to the PC

Wireless via WPS
If you are using WPS (see page 15), you can easily make a wireless connection to other
WLAN devices via the Scan (registration) button.
ì
Press the registration button (Scan) for at least two seconds on the device's back
panel or activate the corresponding function in the user interface to start WPS reg-
istration (see page 46).
ì
During the two-minute interval, activate WPS registration of the wireless network
adapter on the PC. The client receives the security data for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN
dsl (SSID and pre-shared key) and is thereby registered.

Only one client may register during an individual registration phase. If the device indi-
cates by means of the WLAN LED that more than one client has tried to register, there is
no client registered. You can start WPS registration again after a short time.
If the LED indicates a successful WPS registration, the desired client, however, has no
connection the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl and has not been registered successfully, an
external device may have connected to your WLAN. In this case, you should modify the
WPA-PSK key as quickly as possible (see page 52) or perform a factory reset (see
page 27) and perform WPS registration for the clients using a PIN (see page 46).
For additional WPS registration options see chapter "WPS Registration" on page 46.
For the wireless connection of additional PCs without WPS function see page 34.
Wireless without WPS
A wireless connection is made using a wireless network adapter that must be installed
in your PC. This can be an 802.11g or 802.11b-compatible wireless network adapter.
Owing to the superior range and the high data throughput, we recommend that you use
the Gigaset PC Card 108 or the Gigaset USB Adapter 108.
A wireless network is defined by assigning an identical SSID to all the devices.
ì
You should therefore enter the SSID for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl in your network
adapter configuration. The default SSID for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is
ConnectionPoint.
If you use a wireless network adapter from the Gigaset range, enter the SSID using
the Gigaset WLAN Adapter Monitor.
If the correct SSID has been entered in your PC's wireless network adapter, the wireless
link will be established automatically.
