Setting up a WLAN in your home
Microsoft® Windows® XP supports WLAN with the Wireless Network Connection feature.
To set up a WLAN and connect to the Internet in your home, you need the following equipment:
●
A broadband modem (either DSL or cable) (1) and high-speed Internet service purchased from
an Internet service provider (ISP).
●
A wireless router (purchased separately) (2).
●
The wireless computer (3).
The illustration below shows an example of a wireless network installation that is connected to the
Internet.
As your network grows, additional wireless and wired computers can be connected to the network to
access the Internet.
NOTE If you need technical assistance to install your home WLAN, contact the router
manufacturer or your ISP.
