Next, make sure the access point is connected to the LAN, bring up your wireless clients, and connect the
clients to the network. Once you have tested the basics of your wireless network, you can enable more
security and fine-tune the access point by modifying its advanced configuration features.

Make Sure the Access Point is Connected to the LAN

If you configured the access point and administrator PC by connecting both into a network hub, then your
access point is already connected to the LAN.

If you configured the access point using a direct wired connection via Ethernet cable from your computer to
the access point, do the following:

1. Disconnect the Ethernet cable from the computer.

2. Connect the free end of the cable to the

LAN

.

3. Connect your computer to the LAN either via Ethernet cable or wireless client card.
