Installing the 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602 v3

Follow the instructions below to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have

established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings and configure the

advanced wireless functions.

Before installing the 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602 v3, you should make sure that your

Ethernet network is up and working. You will be connecting the access point to the Ethernet

with computers on the Ethernet network. In order for this to work correctly, verify that you have

met all of the system requirements, shown on page 2-3.
