3 Give a name to the new profile. The name can consist of a maximum of 30
alphanumeric characters.
Select the appropriate connection type. You can use more than one connection
type with each profile. Click Next.
4 If you selected WLAN connection type, you have to specify the following
WLAN options:
Operating mode – Select one of the two available operating modes. In the
infrastructure mode, computers can communicate with each other and with
wired LAN stations through a WLAN access point. In the ad hoc mode,
computers can send and receive data directly with each other. No access point
is needed. See “Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN)” on page 6 for more
information.
Network name – Type the network name as defined by the system
administrator, or select one from the list box. In the ad hoc operating mode, the
users themselves name the WLAN. The network name can consist of a
maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters. By default, the network name is
case-sensitive.
To continue, click Next.
5 If your local area network does not have a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration
Protocol) server, which would assign an IP address for the PC card
automatically, you need to specify the IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway settings manually. Ask your system administrator for the correct
values.
Note: Make sure that the Manage TCP/IP properties together with
profiles check box is selected (Settings page, General tab). If this check
box is not selected, the TCP/IP settings are managed by network settings,
which can be configured in the Control Panel of your computer.
6 If you selected GSM connection type, you have to specify the
following settings:
GSM connection method – Select Analog if you are using a modem
connection. If you are using an ISDN connection, select ISDN V. 110 or ISDN
V. 120, depending on which ISDN standard your Internet service provider
supports.
GSM connection speed – Depending on the network, select the correct data
transmission rate: 9.6 Kbit/s or 14.4 Kbit/s. See “GSM properties” on page 25
for more information on data transmission rates.
Note: The use of GSM data services requires that your network supports
data calls and that you have subscribed to this service. Contact your
wireless provider for more information.
