Chapter 2
Basic Installation and Configuration
This chapter describes how to set up your ProSafe 802.11a/g Dual Band Wireless Access Point
WAG102 for wireless connectivity to your LAN. This basic configuration will enable computers
with 802.11b or 802.11a/g wireless adapters to do such things as connect to the Internet, or access
printers and files on your LAN.
You need to prepare these three things before you can establish a connection through your wireless
access point:
A location for the WAG102 that conforms to the Wireless Equipment Placement and Range
Guidelines below.
The wireless access point connected to your LAN through a device such as a hub, switch,
router, or Cable/DSL gateway.
One or more computers with properly configured 802.11b or 802.11a/g wireless adapters.
Note: Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11b or 802.11a/g wireless networks at
ranges of several hundred feet or more. This distance can allow for others outside
your area to access your network. It is important to take appropriate steps to secure
your network from unauthorized access. The WAG102 Wireless Access Point
provides highly effective security features which are covered in detail in
“Understanding Security Profiles” on page 2-19. Deploy the security features
appropriate to your needs
