8 When you activate the new profile, the ZyXEL utility goes to the Link Info screen while

it connects to the AP using your settings. When the wireless link is established, the
ZyXEL utility icon in the system tray turns green and the Link Info screen displays
details of the active connection.

9 Make sure the selected AP in the active profile is on and connected to the Internet. Open

your Internet browser, enter

http://www.zyxel.com

or the URL of any other web site in

the address bar and press ENTER. If you are able to access the web site, your new profile
is successfully configured.

10If you cannot access the Internet, go back to the Profile screen. Select the profile you are

using and click Edit. Check the details you entered previously. Also, refer to the
Troubleshooting section of this User's Guide or contact your network administrator if
necessary.

2.3 Configuring the AG-220 as an AP

Note: This mode is not available in the Windows Vista version of the utility.

In access point mode, your AG-220 allows you to set up your wireless network without using
a dedicated AP. Refer to

Section 1.2.3 on page 25

and

for more

information.

Note: With WZC, you cannot use the AG-220 as an access point.

After you install the ZyXEL utility and then insert the AG-220, follow the steps below to set
up your AG-220 as an AP.

1 Select AP Mode in any utility screen and wait for five seconds. The screen changes and

displays as shown next. Under Status, you can view the current settings on the AG-220.

220.
