Connecting to WLAN
After installation, plug the WLAN stick into the industrial PC. After installing the appropriate drivers, a
network icon will appear in the taskbar. Double-click the icon to display the settings and the 2.4 GHz WLAN
networks within range.
The drivers of the WLAN stick do not support Wi-Fi Direct functions. For this reason, the WLAN stick cannot
be connected to the virtual access point from Beckhoff, which is based on Wi-Fi Direct.
Requirements:
• Existing WLAN with configured access point.
• WLAN key (password).
Proceed as follows:
1. Double-click the network icon in the taskbar to open the WLAN network settings.
2. Click the Wireless Information tab, select the appropriate network (SSID) and click Connect.
