Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.
To use the Wireless Access Point in the ADW-4301, each Wireless Station must have
compatible settings, as follows:
Mode
The mode must be set to
Infrastructure
(rather than Ad-hoc)
Access points only operate in
Infrastructure
mode.

value is
Wireless
.
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
Wireless

If Wireless security remains disabled on the ADW-4301, all
stations must have wireless security disabled.
•
If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router (either
WEP or WPA-PSK), each station must use the same settings
as the Wireless ADLS Router.
