This section applies to all Wireless stations wishing to use the Wireless-N Broadband Router's
Access Point, regardless of the operating system which is used on the client.
To use the Wireless Access Point in the Wireless-N Broadband Router, each Wireless Station
must have compatible settings, as follows:
Mode
The mode must be set to Infrastructure (rather than Ad-hoc)
Access points only operate in Infrastructure mode.

This must match the value used on the Wireless-N Broadband Router.
Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

Security

Router, each station must use the same settings as the Wireless-N
Broadband Router.
