Chapter 3 Wireless Station Mode Configuration

The following table describes the labels in this screen.  

A profile is a set of wireless parameters that you need to connect to a wireless network. With a 
profile activated, each time you start the ZyXEL G-220 v2, it automatically scans for the 
specific SSID and joins that network with the pre-defined wireless security settings. If the 
specified network is not available, the ZyXEL G-220 v2 cannot connect to a network.

If you do not configure and activate a profile, each time you start the ZyXEL G-220 v2, the 
ZyXEL G-220 v2 uses the default profile to connect to any available network with security 
disabled. 

The default profile is a profile that allows you to connect to any SSID without security. 

Click the Profile tab in the ZyXEL Utility program to display the Profile screen as shown 
next.

The profile function allows you to save the wireless network settings in this screen, or use one 
of the pre-configured network profiles.
