Make sure the access point is connected to the LAN and access some wireless clients. After 
you have tested the basics of your wireless network, you can enable more security and 
fine-tune by modifying advanced configuration features.

If you configured the access point and administrator computer by connecting both into 
a network hub, then your access point is already connected to the LAN. The next step is 
to test some wireless clients.

If you configured the access point using a direct wired connection with an Ethernet 
cable from your computer to the access point, disconnect the cable from your 
computer and the access point.

Connect a regular Ethernet cable from the access point to the LAN.

Connect your computer to the LAN either through Ethernet cable or wireless client 
card.

Test the Gateway 7001 Series self-managed AP by trying to detect it and associate with it 
from some wireless client devices. (See 

 in the 

PreLaunch Checklist: Default Settings and Supported Administrator/Client Platforms for 
information on requirements for these clients.)

After you have the wireless network up and running and have tested against the access 
point with some wireless clients, you can add in more layers of security, add users, configure 
a guest interface, and fine-tune performance settings.
