Part 3: Setting up the wireless access point in the IBM
High Rate Wireless LAN Gateway

The IBM High Rate Wireless LAN Gateway is a multifunctional device with an
integrated IEEE 802.11b-compliant WiFi certified access point. You can use it as
a base station for your wireless network. Through the following procedure,
you can turn on the wireless function of the Gateway and connect your
wireless devices with other Ethernet nodes such as a DSL/Cable modem,
printer, file server, or other wireless clients.

Click Wireless settings on the home page.

These three items are displayed in the left-hand navigation bar:

v Advanced

v MAC control setup

v Status monitor

The Network Name or SSID (ESSID) window is displayed in the right frame.
Devices must use the same SSID, for example

″ANY″, before they can

communicate with or through the Gateway. The default SSID is

″ANY″, which

means that if the SSID of your device is something other than

″ANY″ (or is

blank), you cannot access this Gateway through a wireless connection. The
SSID can have up to 13 characters.
