Tutorial
This chapter first provides an overview of how to configure the wireless LAN on your ZyXEL
Device, and then gives step-by-step guidelines showing how to configure your ZyXEL Device
for some example scenarios.
4.1 How to Configure the Wireless LAN
This section shows how to choose which wireless operating mode you should use on the
ZyXEL Device, and the steps you should take to set up the wireless LAN in each wireless
mode. See
Section 4.1.3 on page 54
for links to more information on each step.
4.1.1 Choosing the Wireless Mode
• Use
Access Point
operating mode if you want to allow wireless clients to access your
wired network, all using the same security and Quality of Service (QoS) settings. See
Section 1.2.1 on page 34
for details.
• Use
Bridge/Repeater
operating mode if you want to use the ZyXEL Device to
communicate with other access points. See
Section 1.2.2 on page 34
for details.
The ZyXEL Device is a bridge when other APs access your wired Ethernet network
through the ZyXEL Device.
The ZyXEL Device is a repeater when it has no Ethernet connection and allows other APs
to communicate with one another through the ZyXEL Device.
• Use
AP+Bridge
operating mode if you want to use the ZyXEL Device as an access point
(see above) while also communicating with other access points. See
Section 1.2.3 on page
35
for details.
• Use
MBSSID
operating mode if you want to use the ZyXEL Device as an access point
with some groups of users having different security or QoS settings from other groups of
users. See
Section 1.2.4 on page 36
for details.
4.1.1.1 Configuring Dual WLAN Adaptors
The ZyXEL Device is equipped with dual wireless adaptors. This means you can configure
two different wireless networks to operate simultaneously. See
Section 1.2.6 on page 38
for
details.
You can configure each wireless adaptor separately in the
WIRELESS > Wireless
screen. To
configure the first wireless network, select
WLAN1
in the
WLAN Adaptor
field and follow
the steps in
Section 4.1.2 on page 52
. Then, select
WLAN2
in the
WLAN Adaptor
field and
follow the same procedure to configure the second network.
