A word about
networks
This manual assumes that you are familiar with common
network terms and concepts and that you understand
how a basic network is set up. This manual is not meant
to be a comprehensive explanation of networking.
Note This chapter explains how to set up your Intel
Wireless Gateway II as a wireless access point on an
existing network.
To set up the gateway for a new network, see the
printed Installation Guide, or look for the Installation
Guide PDF file on the CD. Double-click My Computer
