A wireless access point does not connect you to the Internet directly. Instead, it connects to a wired connection such as a cable modem, a DSL modem, or a phone line. Certain types of wireless connections, such as wireless LAN (the IEEE 802.11 standard), are being used to connect to an access point. To connect to an access point, you will need several pieces of information. You will need to know the network name (obtain this from your administrator), and your MAC address (which should have come with your computer or wireless networking card). You may also need to set up encryption. Contact your administrator for your network name and encryption settings. You may need to register your MAC address with your network administrator before connecting to your company network. A residential gateway is the consumer version of an access point. Consult your residential gateway instructions for setup. Be careful to disable the wireless function when you are not using it because it uses power even when you are not connected to the network. Some models have an integrated Wireless LAN antenna and hardware. If your computer did not come with integrated wireless, you can purchase a PC Card as an option. Wireless LAN gives you a high-speed connection to an access point. If your computer comes with the built-in wireless LAN card, refer to Making wireless LAN connections for more information. If your computer has the Integrated Bluetooth features and/or comes with the built-in wireless WAN card, refer to Using Bluetooth and Using wireless WAN connections for more information. file://C:\TamaTemp\Wireless.htm\Wireless.htm 2006/09/07 Making wireless LAN connections 1/1 Making wireless LAN connections You can stay connected to your network while you are in the office, in a meeting room, or at home, with no need for a wired connection.
