Accessing the
Wizard
3Com recommends that you perform the initial Access Point
configuration from a computer that is directly connected to the LAN port
and not from a wireless connection.
If, however, you do configure the Access Point from a wireless admin
computer DO NOT change the wireless configuration, or you risk losing
contact with the Access Point. Yout wireless NIC should be set as follows:
■
Encryption — none
■
Service Area Name/SSID — 3Com
The Access Point setup program is Web-based, which means that it is
accessed through your Web browser (Netscape Navigator, Internet
Explorer or Mozilla).
To use the Setup Wizard:
1 Ensure that you have at least one computer connected to the Access
Point. Refer to
Chapter 2 for details on how to do this.
2 Insert the Access Point CD-ROM in the CD-ROM drive on your computer.
A menu will appear; select
Discovery .
Discovery will find the Access Point even if it is unconfigured or
misconfigured.
