Connecting a Macintosh OS X Computer with Built-in Wireless
Capabilities
1
Click the Wi-Fi icon in the menu bar. If the Wi-Fi icon does not appear on your
menu bar please refer to your built-in documentation on how to enable wireless.
Note: On versions prior to OS 10.7 the Wi-Fi icon is called AirPort.
2
Select the Wireless Network Name (SSID) you gave your wireless network in Step
4 of the Setup Wizard. If you did not change the Wireless Network Name (SSID),
select the default name Zoom_xxxxxx, where xxxxxx is 6 random alpha numeric
characters.
•
When prompted for the wireless password, enter the Security Key found on the
bottom label of your unit. If you changed the key in Step 4 of the Setup Wizard,
enter the new security key. Click OK to connect to the Modem/Router.
More than one wireless network may appear in the list. These are other wireless
networks that are within range of your network. Your neighbors, for instance, may
be within range of your network. Each wireless network has a channel associated
with it. We recommend there be at least a five-channel difference between your
network and those of your neighbors. Having less than a five-channel difference
may result in interference with your connection. By default, the Modem/Router
uses channel 10. If you need to change this channel, you must do so using the
Wireless Setup page of the Zoom Configuration Manager. For instructions on
how to log in to the Zoom Configuration Manager, see page 10. After logging in,
select Wireless from the left-hand menu. On the Wireless page you can select a
new channel from the drop-down menu.
To disconnect from the current network:
1
Click the Wi-Fi icon on the menu bar.
2
Select Turn Wi-Fi Off (OS 10.7 or later) or Turn AirPort Off (OS versions prior to
10.7) to disconnect from the Modem/Router.
