If you performed
installation without using Stick & Surf
,
you have to select the WLAN remote site (the WLAN access
point) to connect with manually. In this case the control
software FRITZ!WLAN automatically searches for WLAN de-
vices at your location. Once a list of the WLAN access
points found is displayed, proceed as follows:
1.
Select the WLAN device to which you would like to es-
tablish a connection and confirm your selection by
clicking “Select” or “Connect”.
2.
Enter the network key of the WLAN access point.
On the AVM FRITZ!Box family products, the network
key is printed on the underside of the device.
3.
The WLAN connection is established.
Once the connection is established, the
WLAN icon
in the
notification area of the Windows task bar turns green.
Click the icon to display connection details.

WLAN remote site with the right mouse button or
