Overview of the installation steps
1. First install an Ethernet network card or a wireless
Network adapter
in the PCs you
want to connect to the Giga762SX WLAN dsl. The installation is described in the user
guides for these products.
2. Then make the necessary connections (PCs, phones, splitter) on the Giga762SX
WLAN dsl and activate the device (page 25).
3. Before the PCs can communicate with the Giga762SX WLAN dsl and with each other
in a local network, you may have to change your network settings (page 35). Con-
figure these network settings on
one
PC first so that it can establish a connection to
the Giga762SX WLAN dsl. You can then use this PC to configure the device. To find
out how to do this, refer to the section entitled "Configuring the local area network"
on the CD-ROM.
4. With a wireless connection, you establish the link from the PC's wireless network
adapter to the Giga762SX WLAN dsl. This is described in the user guide for the net-
work adapter. If the wireless network adapter provides WPS, you can establish the
connection with a simple click (see page 33).
5. Then configure the Giga762SX WLAN dsl to activate the device's Internet access (re-
fer to the section entitled "Basic Setup Wizard" on page 42"). To
do this you will need the access data for your Internet service pro-
vider.
6. If you want to connect more PCs to the Giga762SX WLAN dsl,
configure their network settings and set up the local area net-
work accordingly (refer to the section entitled "Configuring the
local area network" on the CD-ROM).
