Connecting wirelessly to a PC without WPS
A wireless connection is made using a wireless network adapter that must be installed

or 802.11b-compatible wireless network adapter.

same encryption.
Assign the SSID of the Gigaset SE366 WLAN to the network adapters. The factory set
SSID is

. If the correct SSID has been entered in your PC's wireless
network adapter, the wireless link will be established automatically once you connect
your Gigaset SE366 WLAN to the mains power supply (see page 25). You should then
configure encryption on the Gigaset SE366 WLAN and the wireless network adapter.

The radio link to a PC that is connected by means of a wireless network adapter is
established automatically if the network adapter has been configured with the same
