Software installation
The following section describes the installation of the Windows-compatible
system software LANtools, as supplied.
You may skip this section if you use your L-300 Access Point exclusively
with computers running operating systems other than Windows.
2.6.1
Starting the software setup
Place the product CD into your drive. The setup program will start automati-
cally.
If the setup does not start automatically, run AUTORUN.EXE in the
root directory of the LANCOM CD.
LAN interface: Can be used exclusively or in parallel for DSLoL.
There are basically two possibilities for using the access point for DSLoL operation. Use exclu-
sive mode when you wish to connect the device directly to the DSL modem. Use automatic
mode when you wish to connect it to a hub or switch on a wired LAN and the hub (or switch)
is connected to the DSL modem. If the access point is advertised as a gateway via DHCP, com-
puters in the LAN and wireless LAN can
access the Internet via one physical port
simultaneously
. You can set the desired
mode in LANconfig in the interface set-
tings of the DSLoL interface.
DSLoL supports all PPPoE-based
Internet connections (such as T-DSL) as well as Internet connections that have been
implemented with static IP addresses via a router (for example CompanyConnect or
various SDSL connections for business customers).
