1. In the AP Selection Method field, choose either BSSID or SSID as the AP selection priority. If BSSID is
selected and the EWS-150g cannot locate the BSSID within the elapsed time specified in the BSSID
Timeout field, the unit defaults to the SSID. The default for this field is SSID.
2. If BSSID is selected as the AP selection method, enter the MAC address of the AP in the BSSID field.
3. If BSSID is selected as the AP selection method, enter a value (in seconds) in the BSSID Timeout field
to define the elapsed time before the EWS-150g defaults to the SSID to locate the AP.
4. In the SSID field, enter the SSID of the network that you want to grant client access to.
5. In the Authentication field, choose the desired level of authentication. Client authentication ensures
that users are who they say they are. If authentication is required (strongly recommended), you must
define the level of authentication you want to assign to this Access Point. Currently, not all
authentication types are available with the EWS-150g. The default for this field is Open.
6. The EAP Type is currently not supported.
7. In the Encryption field, choose either Clear or WEP (other encryption methods are currently not
supported). The default for this field is Clear.
