The Gateway wireless access point

Introduction

This section will help you set up your wireless network.

What you need to set up a wireless network

To set up a wireless network, you need the following components:



A

Wireless access point

(already integrated into your Gateway)



A

Wireless client

the device that you want to connect (for example, a computer, smartphone, network printer,...)

Wireless access point

The wireless access point is the heart of your wireless network. The wireless access point:



Connects different wireless clients.



Secures the data sent over wireless connection.

The Gateway has a built-in 2.4 GHz access point.

Wireless client

The wireless client allows you to connect a device, typically a computer, to a wireless access point. Both built-in and external

(for example via USB) clients are available.

Check the documentation of your computer if you are not sure if your computer is equipped with a wireless client.

Configuring your wireless clients

For more information on how to establish a wireless connection to the Gateway, see:



“2.4.1 How to connect your wireless client via WPS” on page 18



“2.4.2 How to manually connect your wireless client” on page 20

Devices like tablets and smartphones usually have a built-in wireless client. Check the documentation of your device

for more information.

The

Edit

page appears:

The following fields are available for configuration:



Network Name (SSID)

:

To distinguish one wireless network from another, each wireless network has its own network name, often referred to as

Service Set IDentifier (SSID). All your wireless clients on your network must use this network name (SSID).



Mode

:

The standards that are allowed for wireless communication. Only devices that support one of the selected modes can

connect to the Gateway.



Security Mode

:

The encryption type used to secure your wireless communication. We recommend using the default encryption,

WPAWPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES)

.

Open

and

WEP

are to be avoided for security reasons and should only be used if

your wireless client does not support WPA.



Channel Selection

:

When you select

Automatic

, the Gateway automatically selects the best channel for your wireless communication.



Channel

:

The channel that is currently used for your wireless communication.



Network Password

:

The wireless network key that is used for encrypting your wireless communication.



Broadcast Network Name (SSID)

:

By default, the Gateway broadcasts its network name. Wireless clients can then detect the presence of your network

and inform the users that this network is available.

Enabling SSID broadcast does not mean that everyone can connect to your network. They still need the

correct wireless network key (password) to connect to the Gateway network. It only informs them that your

network is present.
