ProSafe Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG102 Reference Manual (802.11a/g)
2-10 Basic Installation and Configuration
v2.0, September 2006
Deploying the WAG102 Wireless Access Point
To deploy the WAG102 Wireless Access Point:
1. Disconnect the WAG102 and position it where it will be deployed. The best location is
elevated, such as wall mounted or on the top of a cubicle, at the center of your wireless
coverage area, and within line of sight of all the mobile devices.
2. Lift the antenna on either side so that they are vertical.
3. Connect an Ethernet cable from your WAG102 Wireless Access Point to a LAN port on your
router, switch, or hub.
4. Connect the power adapter to the wireless access point and plug the power adapter in to a
power outlet. The PWR, LAN, and Wireless LAN lights and should light up.
Verifying Wireless Connectivity
Using a computer with an 802.11b/g or 802.11a wireless adapter with the correct wireless settings
needed to connect to the WAG102 (SSID, WEP/WPA, MAC ACL, etc.), verify connectivity by
using a browser such as Mozilla Firefox, or Internet Explorer to browse the Internet, or check for
file and printer access on your network.
The default SSID for the 802.11b/g is NETGEAR-11g; the default SSID for the 802.11a is
NETGEAR-11a. The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID configured in the
ProSafe 802.11a/g Dual Band Wireless Access Point WAG102. If they do not match, no wireless
connection will be made.
Note: Consult the antenna positioning and wireless mode configuration information
in the Advanced Configuration chapter of the Reference Manual.
Note: If you are unable to connect, see Chapter 5, “Troubleshooting.”
