Figure 2-3 is an example of an infrastructure network incorporating the TL-WA5110G. An
Infrastructure network contains an access point or a wireless router. To establish an infrastructure
network in AP mode, please take the following steps:

1. You will need broadband Internet access (a Cable or DSL-subscriber line into your home or

office). Consult with your Cable or DSL provider for proper installation of the modem.

2. Connect the Cable or DSL modem to a Router. Quickly install the router.

3. Locate an optimum location for the AP. The best place is usually near the center of the area

in which your PC(s) will wirelessly connect. The place must accord with the

Installation

Environment Requirements.
