Manager Console

To communicate with a manager console, the Wireless Gateway must know

the manager console's IP address. If you have set up a manager console, click

in the IP Address box and type the address in.

If no manager console exists, make sure the manager console IP Address

wired LAN, or the wireless access point. Since some manager console features

need quick response times to work well, however, it is best for any manager
