Welcome
This User’s Manual contains information on how to install and configure your Wireless LAN Access
Point.
A network is more than one computer that are connected together such that sharing of resources, files
and peripheral devices, such as printers, is made easy. A local area network (LAN) is a network that
connectivity is accessible only within a relatively limited area. Wireless LAN is a local area network
that connections among computing devices are realized via radio technology.
A wireless LAN allows you to communicate with other computers without having the trouble running
cables or wires used in traditional networking. Moreover, by ways of the Wireless LAN Access Point,
computers equipped with wireless LAN cards (wireless clients) can share resources with computers on
existing wired LAN, forming an infrastructure wireless network.
The Access Points are capable of being used in a wide variety of applications, and offer the following
functions:
• Stand-alone wireless Intranet: a relay station that increases communication ranges among
wireless clients.
• Bridge to Ethernet: Establishing communication capability between Wireless and Ethernet
Interfaces to establish an Intranet.
