Testing Basic Wireless Access (No Security)
1.
Prepare a PC as the wireless PC Client with a wireless Ethernet adapter installed.
If this PC is already part of your network, record its TCP/IP configuration settings for use
later.
2.
Configure the Client PC to obtain its IP
and
DNS addresses automatically using the internal
DHCP server (DHCP is the default firewall setting).
3.
Using this Client PC, try to access a file or a printer on the LAN connected to the SRXN3205.
If you have not set up the basic wireless settings mentioned earlier to SRXN3205 with the
Host PC, this test will not give satisfactory results. Go to the
“Configuring Basic Wireless
Setup (No Security)”
and set up the SRXN3205 for basic wireless access with no security.
Note:
If your country or region is not listed, please check with Netgear Support.
