Quick Start Guide
You should therefore assign the SSID of the Gigaset SE366 WLAN to the network adapt-
ers. The factory set SSID is ConnectionPoint. If the correct SSID has been entered in
your PC's wireless network adapter, the wireless link will be established automatically
once you connect your Gigaset SE366 WLAN to the mains power supply (see page 21).
You should then set the encryption on the Gigaset SE366 WLAN and on the wireless net-
work adapter.
Your Gigaset SE366 WLAN is now ready for use:
The power LED on the front lights up.
u
The WLAN LED lights up to indicate that the Gigaset SE366 WLAN is ready to open
u
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 SE366 WLAN. It can take a few seconds for the wireless
connection to be established. The WLAN LED flashes when data is sent or received
via this connection.
The LAN LEDs light up if a device is connected to the corresponding LAN connection
u
by means of an Ethernet cable.
In order to communicate via the Gigaset SE366 WLAN, you must carry out the network
configuration on the connected PC (see page 25). This usually takes place automati-
cally. To access the Internet via the Gigaset SE366 WLAN, you must configure your Inter-
net connection (see page 25).
Connecting and configuring additional PCs (optional)
Once you have configured one PC as described above you can connect additional PCs to
the Gigaset SE366 WLAN. You will need an additional cable for each PC you want to con-
nect via cable. To connect additional wireless PCs, you will need a wireless network
adapter, e.g. a Gigaset USB Adapter 300 or a Gigaset PC Card 300.
Wireless
ì
Install wireless network adapters on every other PC in accordance with the respec-
tive user guide.
You can connect additional PCs via WPS (see page 22) or make the security settings
manually (see page 23). Please note that the SSID of all wireless network compo-
nents (Gigaset SE366 WLAN and network adapter) must be identical.
If you connected the first PC via WPS and want to connect other PCs without WPS,
you have to
– check the generated values for the SSID and encryption in the configuration pro-
gram for the Gigaset SE366 WLAN and
– configure the wireless network adapters on the PCs accordingly.
ì
If necessary, set up the network for each newly connected PC (see page 25).
