Connecting to a Computer

Be sure to use a wireless LAN base unit that conforms to standards listed on

“Specifications” (

A router is a device that creates a network (LAN) structure for connecting

multiple computers. A router that contains an internal wireless function is

called a wireless (LAN) router.

This guide will refer to all wireless routers and base stations as “access

points”.

When unsure of your computer setup, refer to the user manual provided with

the computer.
