can only effectively be used if a second network connection, either wired or
wireless, is active.
Once you activate the AP mode, you’ll be asked to specify which network adapter
(other than the Manhattan wireless adapter) should be used for the AP mode. If
the goal is to share an existing Internet connection, then this adapter must provide
an
Internet connection your computer. In the example below, the computer will use the
Manhattan Wireless 450N Dual-Band Adapter to provide wireless access point
functionality while the Intel 82577LM Gigabit adapter provides the Internet connection
to the computer. This is the connection you’ll be sharing wirelessly. If you’ve
understood everything so far, it should be clear that the screen may look different
during your setup since you likely have a different WAN adapter installed.
After you click on the right arrow, a brief message about enabling ICS (Internet
Connection Sharing) will display before the screen disappears.
The other thing that will disappear is the Manhattan wireless connection icon —
replaced by a new icon indicating that the AP mode is now
active. Right-click that icon and select “Open Utility” to start
the configuration utility for the AP mode.
