Wireless Station Configuration

This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the ADW-4302v2's Access
Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.

Wireless Configuration on Windows XP

If using Windows XP to configure the Wireless interface on your PC, the configuration
procedure is as follows:
1. Open the Network Connections folder. (Start - Settings - Network Connections).
2. Right-click the Wireless Network Connection, check that it is enabled (menu
option says Disable, rather than Enable) and then select View Available Wireless
Networks.
3. You will then see a list of wireless networks.
The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)
Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.
This must match the value used on the ADW-4302v2. The default
value is Wireless.
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
By default, Wireless security on the ADW-4302v2 is disabled.
If Wireless security remains disabled on the ADW-4302v2, all
stations must have wireless security disabled.
If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router (either
WEP or WPA-PSK), each station must use the same settings
as the ADW-4302v2.
