5.2 Connecting Computers Wirelessly over WLAN
Using WLAN radio technology you can connect multiple com-
puters with the FRITZ!Box wirelessly.
Please note the following before establishing a wireless con-
nection between the computer and the FRITZ!Box:
• WLAN device
A computer to be connected to the FRITZ!Box via WLAN
must be equipped with a WLAN device for it to support
WLAN. A WLAN device can be an external WLAN adap-
ter—like a USB stick, for example—or a device integrated
in the computer. Many modern computers and note-
books come with a WLAN device integrated.
• WLAN security settings
In the FRITZ!Box, WLAN security settings are enabled up-
on delivery. Before a computer can establish a wireless
connection to the FRITZ!Box, the WLAN security settings
of the FRITZ!Box must be transferred to the WLAN device.
For this procedure the FRITZ!Box supports the two auto-
matic methods AVM Stick & Surf and WPS (Wi-Fi Protect-
ed Setup). The security settings can also be transferred
manually.
For more information on WLAN, see the section FRITZ!Box as
a WLAN Base Station from page 71.
