Determine the Configuration of your Wireless Network

Before installing the HE102 Wireless Access Point, you should make sure that

your Ethernet network is up and working with a computer. You’ll be connecting

the access point to the Ethernet network so that computers with the 802.11a

Wireless Adapter will be able to communicate with computers on the Ethernet

network.

For each computer that you want to communicate with the access point, you

must have an IEEE 802.11a compatible wireless adapter installed in the

computer.

In order to set up the access point, you will need to determine the network

settings of your wireless network, as follows.

What is the SSID for yourwireless network? ________________________________

The Service Set Identification (SS ID) identifies the wireless local area network.

The default Service Set Identification (SS ID) is “Wireless,” however, you may

customize it by using up to 32 alphanumeric characters. We recommend that

you write your customized SSID on the line above.

Note: In order for the HE102 Wireless Access Point to communicate with a

wireless adapter, both must be

configured with the same SSID. For the access

point and wireless nodes to communicate with each other, all must be

configured with the same SSID.

Which wireless channel should you use? __________________________________

The HE102 Wireless Access Point will communicate with other 802.11a

wireless devices in the pre-selected channel. For more information on reviewing

the channel selections for your operations, please refer to the charts on page 10.
