Setting Up Wireless Access
The Wireless Setup dialog box allows you to configure the parameters required for
wireless wide-band modem access to the enterprise intranet.
wireless wide-band modem access to the enterprise intranet.
A wireless wide-band network device can be used to access the enterprise intranet. The
wireless network device connects to a USB port on the thin client and uses short-range
wide-band radio to communicate with a wireless access point. Typically, wireless access
points are located at several locations in the enterprise within range of the wide-band
modems, and connect directly to the enterprise intranet.

Service Set Identification (SSID), Channel, and encryption keys (WEP keys) must be
entered in the Wireless Setup dialog box on the thin client. Corresponding entries must
also be made in the enterprise access point (except for this, thin client operation is the
same as Ethernet direct access, including access to the enterprise DHCP server).

Use the following guidelines:
• Network Mode options:
• Network Mode options:
• Infrastructure (default) - This mode of operation requires the presence of an IEEE
specification 802.11b-compliant access point. All communication is done through
the access point which relays packets to other wireless clients as well as to nodes
on a wired Ethernet network.
the access point which relays packets to other wireless clients as well as to nodes
on a wired Ethernet network.
• Ad Hoc - This is the IEEE 802.11b peer-to-peer mode of operation. In this mode,
only one wireless cell is supported for each different Service Set Identification
(SSID). All communication is done client-to-client without the use of an access
point.

• SSID - Enter the Service Set Identification set up by the network administrator for this
wireless communication link.
• Channel - Select the frequency channel (0 through 14) to be used for this wireless
communication link (the channel can only be selected in Ad Hoc mode, as the channel
is selected based on the relative strength of signals from the available access points in
Infrastructure mode).

• WEP Key - Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) encryption can be enabled by selecting
one of the keys in the list corresponding to those entered in the Key #1 through Key #4
boxes. Select None if encryption is not required. WEP uses the selected key to
