Settings for the wireless network

Your Gigaset WLAN Repeater 108 allows you to roam your network. Roaming provides
optimum connection quality and uninterrupted data traffic while you move around
within the range of your network. Your PC automatically sets up a connection to the
access point with the strongest signal without interrupting data traffic. The precondi-
tion for roaming is setting the same radio channel, the same SSID and the same
IP subnet on all the network components.
Please note:
The network adapter of the PC you want to use to configure your Gigaset WLAN
Repeater 108 should be set to obtain its IP address automatically (see also page 95).
If you use static IP addresses in your network, the IP address of your PCs must be in
the same subnet as the IP address of your Gigaset WLAN Repeater 108 (see
page 102).
The screenshot shows the setting options for Repeater operating mode; in access point
operating mode, only Channel and SSID are displayed.
