Wireless Station Configuration
This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the ADSL VoIP Router's Access
Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.
To use the Wireless Access Point in the ADSL VoIP Router, each Wireless Station must have
compatible settings, as follows:
Mode The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)
Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.
SSID (ESSID) This must match the value used on the ADSL VoIP Router. The default
value is Wireless.
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.
Wireless
Security
By default, Wireless security on the ADSL VoIP Router is disabled.
• If Wireless security remains disabled on the ADSL VoIP Router, all
stations must have wireless security disabled.
• If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router (either WEP or
WPA-PSK), each station must use the same settings as the Wireless
ADLS Router.
