First steps

Connecting to the phone

ì

Connect the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl with the analogue phone as follows:

–

Insert the plug of the telephone into the

Phone 1

or

Phone 2

port on the Gigaset

SX763 WLAN dsl.

Note:

You cannot make calls in the event of a power failure. Emergency numbers are also

not accessible in this case.

First steps

Connecting wired to the PC

You can connect wired or wireless PCs to your Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl to create a local

area network (LAN). Wireless connection is possible after connecting the Gigaset SX763

WLAN dsl to the power supply (see page 33).

First connect just

one

PC to the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl, wired connection is recom-

mended. You can then carry out the general configuration. (If you wish to connect more

PCs, please turn to page 38.)

ì

Connect one of the LAN ports (

LAN1

–

LAN4

) on the Gigaset SX763 WLAN

dsl to the Ethernet network card in your PC. To do this, use the LAN cable supplied

(CAT5,

First steps

Connecting to the mains power supply

ì

Connect the mains adapter cable to the

PWR

socket on the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl.

ì

Plug the mains adapter into a mains socket.

ì

If your device has an on/off button, switch on the device.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is now switched on and ready for operation.

Please remember:

Only use the mains adapter supplied with the device (12V 1.5A DC).

First steps

Connecting wireless to the PC

Wireless via WPS

If you are using WPS (see page 16), you can easily make a wireless connection to other

WLAN devices via the Scan (registration) button.

ì

Press the registration button (Scan) for at least two seconds on the device’s back

panel or activate the corresponding function in the user interface to start WPS reg-

istration (see page 50).

ì

During the two-minute interval, activate WPS registration of the wireless network

adapter on the PC. The client receives the security data for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN

dsl (SSID and pre-shared key) and is thereby registered.

Only one client may register during an individual registration phase. If the device indi-

cates by means of the WLAN LED that more than one client has tried to register, there is

no client registered. You can start WPS registration again after a short time.

If the LED indicates a successful WPS registration, the desired client, however, has no

connection the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl and has not been registered successfully, an

external device may have connected to your WLAN. In this case, you should modify the

WPA-PSK key as quickly as possible (see page 56) or perform a factory reset (see

page 27) and perform WPS registration for the clients using a PIN (see page 50).

For additional WPS registration options see chapter "WPS Registration" on page 50.

For the wireless connection of additional PCs without WPS function see page 38.

Wireless without WPS

A wireless connection is made using a wireless network adapter that must be installed

in your PC. This can be an 802.11g or 802.11b-compatible wireless network adapter.

Owing to the superior range and the high data throughput, we recommend that you use

the Gigaset PC Card 108 or the Gigaset USB Adapter 108.

First steps

A wireless network is defined by assigning an identical SSID to all the devices.

ì

You should therefore enter the SSID for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl in your network

adapter configuration. The default SSID for the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is

ConnectionPoint

.

If you use a wireless network adapter from the Gigaset range, enter the SSID using

the Gigaset WLAN Adapter Monitor.

The Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl is delivered with preset individual encryption (WPA2-PSK/

WPA-PSK with pre-shared Key). You will find this key at the label on the devices bottom.

ì

Choose the encryption method WPA2-PSK/ WPA-PSK in the configuration settings of

your network adapter and enter the pre-shared key of you Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl.

If one of your network adapters do not provide this encryption method, you must

change the encryption method at the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl (see page 92) and

then configure the encryption appropriatly for all network adapters. The settings at

the Gigaset SX763 WLAN dsl should be performed only with a wired connected PC)

If the correct SSID and encryption has been entered in your PC's wireless network

adapter, the wireless link will be established automatically.
