Some things to keep in mind with AOSS:
•
Only one AOSS wireless client adapter can be configured with the AOSS router at a
time. The buttons will need to be re-pressed to connect each additional AOSS wireless
client adapter.
•
It is not necessary to AOSS client devices that have already been configured via AOSS,
unless significant changes have been made to the wireless network.
•
Do not attempt to configure two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as it may
cause undesired configurations.
•
If an undesired client has connected via AOSS, it can be disconnected from within the
WZR2-G300N’s advanced configuration menus.

This AirStation supports quickly changing the
product from a full wireless router to a simple access
point.
Put your Airstation into Access Point Mode by
moving the “ROUTER” switch on the bottom of your
AirStation from ON to OFF. This changes the default
192.168.11.100, and DHCP, NAT, and the WAN port
are disabled. All router functionality is disabled, and
the WZR2-G300N becomes a simple access point.
Access Point Mode might be desirable if you’re
adding wireless capability to an existing network that already has a router. It is not
suitable for most home configurations where the unit is the only router in the network. If
you plan to use the AirStation as a normal wireless router, make sure that this switch is in
the normal (ON) position!

By default, encryption is not enabled on the
AirStation unless you used AOSS to perform your
setup. Anyone within range can easily connect to
your wireless network. This might not be what you
want.
Buffalo recommends enabling encryption and
setting a password for access to your network. This
is easy to configure from within the AirStation’s
configuration tool. From the opening page, select
Wireless Config
Tab, select the
Security
submenu.

Encryption and Security
Many kinds of encryption are available. WEP
works with almost everything. WPA2-PSK is
much more secure. Choose the strongest method
of encryption that works with all of your wireless
devices.
If you must use WEP, it is available under “Wireless
Encryption”.
Enter a network key (“password”) for this
connection. Write down your password and put
it in a safe place. You will not be able to connect
wireless devices to your network without this
password.
