3. Before the PCs can communicate with the Gigaset SX762 WLAN dsl and with each
other in a local network, you may have to change your network settings (page 28).

vice. To find out how to do this, refer to the section entitled "Configuring the local

adapter to the Gigaset SX762 WLAN dsl. This is described in the user guide for the

(refer to the section entitled "Basic Setup Wizard" on page 34). To do this you will

u
work settings and set up the local area network accordingly (refer to the section enti-
tled "Configuring the local area network" on the CD-ROM).
