This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the Wireless ADSL Router's Access
Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.
To use the Wireless Access Point in the Wireless ADSL Router, each Wireless Station must
have compatible settings, as follows:
Mode
The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)
Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.

This must match the value used on the Wireless ADSL Router. The
default value is Admin.
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

Security
By default, Wireless security on the Wireless ADSL Router is disabled.

• If Wireless security is enabled on the Wireless Router, each station
must use the same settings as the Wireless ADLS Router.
