If you use the Windows 2003 Server operating system on your PC, add a HyperTerminal, and then log

in to and manage the AP as described in this document. If you use Windows 2008 Server, Windows 7,

Windows Vista, or any other operating system on your PC, use the third party terminal software. For

how to use the third party terminal software, see the user guide or online help of that software.
