Connecting to the WLAN
Connecting to your WiFiSec WLAN using the SonicWALL Global VPN Client is easy. The
WLAN users simply enable the connection policy and enter the username and password you
entered in the VPN Authentication page of the SOHO TZW Setup Wizard to log onto the WLAN
using the Global VPN Client.
If you have configured Wireless Guest Services and enforced WiFiSec on the WLAN, your
guest users are directed to a download page for the Global VPN Client software. A guest user
downloads and installs the software on their laptop. Using the IP address of the WLAN, a guest
user then creates a connection to the WLAN. Once connected to the WLAN, a guest user needs
the account name and password you setup in the SOHO TZW Setup Wizard to log into the
SOHO TZW. After logging in, the guest user can access the WAN using the privileges assigned
to the account.
Tip! You need the user name and password you entered in the Setup Wizard for logging onto
your secure WiFi wireless network.
