1 Introduction 
 
Welcome!   
 
Your HP HP PC includes a Wireless LAN 802.11b/g Device.  This device allows you to establish 
a wireless network using your HP PC as a Wireless Access Point or as a Wireless Client (Station 
Mode) if you already have a wireless network running. 
 
Today, millions of people are installing 802.11 Access Points (Gateways) for wireless networking.   
Your HP PC is communicating wirelessly via an embedded Wireless LAN 802.11b/g Device. The 
Wireless Software Access Point (SoftAP) available on your HP HP PC is capable of turning your HP 
HP PC into a wireless Access Point (Gateway) enabling other wireless LAN products to connect to 
the internet through your HP PC securely with high-speed access. 
 
The main purpose of the SoftAP is to provide two modes of accessing the internet:  Station Mode 
(Client Mode) or Access Point Mode (AP Mode).  
 
Note
:  It is required that you already have internet access established through an ISP prior to using 
the SoftAP.  For further information, please consult your ISP. 
 
If you have already established a wireless network with access to the internet and you would like 
to wirelessly connect this HP PC to your wireless network, use Station Mode
 
If your HP HP PC is connected to the internet and you would like instructions on how to configure 
for other machines to share the internet connection through this HP PC please refer to 
Chapter 4, 
Activating Access Point Mode
 for information on initiating AP Mode.
