Chapter 3. Initial Configuration

This chapter describes how to easy setup and configure the Wireless

Broadband Access Point (AP) initially. The AP can be configured into a

bridge and a broadband wireless router to meet different applications. Users

can use a wired LAN-attached computer to configure the AP through a web

browser or a telnet session on a LAN computer.

In this chapter, we only describe how to quickly configure the AP with a web

browser. For detailed descriptions of the many configuration parameters and

network configuration, refer to Chapter 4.
