What About Security?

You have multiple options for adding security to your WLAN. Set
security according to the needs of your network.

You can limit access to parts of the network by setting
passwords and creating special shared files. Refer to your
operating system’s documentation for more information.

You can protect your network from intrusion by the outside
world (via the Internet) by installing a router. Go to the Adaptec
Web site at

www.adaptec.com

for more information on Adaptec’s

Wireless Router.

You can exclude unauthorized users from your WLAN by using
the security and encryption features built into your Wireless
device. See

Connecting to the WLAN on page 28

and

Changing the

Set-up of Your WLAN on page 32

, and refer to your other
