Wireless Setup

10.1 Introduction

Over recent years, the market for wireless communications has enjoyed
tremendous growth. Wireless technology now reaches or is capable of
reaching virtually every location on the face of the earth. Hundreds of
millions of people exchange information every day using wireless
communication products. Therefore, the Vigor2200VG series residential
broadband routers are designed for increasing flexibility and efficiency of a
small office/a home by deploying the WLAN network.
To elaborate one example, any authorized staff can bring a built-in WLAN
client PDA or notebook into a meeting room for conference without laying a
clot of LAN cable.
One more example, parents can write E-mail at their studyoom and kids are
also able to surf Internet at their bedrooms as the Vigor2200VG is set up in
some corner of a home. Parents do not need to drill any hole for installing
LAN cable everywhere in the house.
The Vigor2200VG series are equipped with a wireless LAN interface
compliant with the IEEE 802.11g protocol supporting data rate of 54Mbps.
The wireless LAN capability enables high mobility of several users so that
they can simultaneously access all LAN facilities just like on a wired LAN as
