This section describes how to connect the wireless client to a network.

6.6.1 Connecting to a Wireless LAN

The following sections show you how to join a ZyXEL wireless client (not included) to the

wireless network. This example uses the ZyXEL utility that comes with a ZyXEL wireless

client. In the following diagram, the wireless client is labelled C and the access point is

labelled AP.

There are three ways to connect the client to an access point.

• Configure nothing and leave the wireless client to automatically scan for and connect to

any available network that has no wireless security configured.

• Manually connect to a network.

• Configure a profile to have the wireless client automatically connect to a specific network

or peer computer.
