Overview of the installation steps
1. First install an Ethernet network card or a wireless
Network adapter
such as the
Gigaset PC Card 108 in the PCs you want to connect to the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl.
The installation is described in the products' user guides.
2. Then make the necessary connections (PCs, splitters) on the Gigaset SE555 WLAN
dsl and activate the device (see page 18).
3. Before the PCs can communicate with the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl and with each
other in a local network, you may have to change your network settings (see

connection to the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl. You can then use this PC to configure
the device. To find out how to do this, refer to the section entitled "Configuring the
local network" on page 111.
4. In a wireless connection you establish the link from the PC's wireless network adapt-
er to the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl. This is described in the user guide for the network
adapter.
5. Then configure the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl to activate the device's Internet access
(refer to the section entitled "Basic Setup Wizard" on page 30). To do this you will re-
quire the access data from your Internet service provider.
6. If you want to connect more PCs to the Gigaset SE555 WLAN dsl, configure their net-
work settings so as to set up the local network (refer to the section entitled
"Configuring the local network" on page 111).
