Wireless LAN 
Wireless communication occurs over radio waves rather than a wire. Like a cordless 
telephone, a WLAN uses radio signals instead of wires to exchange data. A wireless 
network eliminates the need for expensive and intrusive wiring to connect computers 
throughout the home or office. Mobile users can remain connected to the network even 
when carrying their laptop to different locations in the home or office. 
Each computer or other device on a WLAN must be Wi-Fi enabled with either a built-in or 
external wireless adapter. 
Laptops — Use a wireless notebook adapter in the PCMCIA slot or a wireless USB 
adapter. 
Desktops — Use a wireless PCI adapter, wireless USB adapter, or compatible product in 
the PCI slot or USB port, respectively.

Setup Program
 
Sample Wireless Network Connections 
To set up the SBG901 on a computer wired to the SBG901 with an Ethernet connection, 
perform the procedures in the section, 
 Do not attempt to configure the 
SBG901 over a wireless connection. 
Your maximum wireless operation distance depends on the type of materials through 
which the signal must pass and the location of your SBG901 and clients (stations). 
Motorola cannot guarantee wireless operation for all supported distances in all 
environments.
