Installing the WNDAP330 Wireless Access Point
Before installing the ProSafe 802.11n Dual Band Wireless Access Point WNDAP330, you should
make sure that your Ethernet network is up and working. You will be connecting the access point
to the Ethernet network so that computers with 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapters will be
able to communicate with computers on the Ethernet network. In order for this to work correctly,
verify that you have met all of the system requirements, shown on
“System Requirements” on
page 1-6 .
