4.4 Connecting the dLAN 500 WiFi
This section describes how to connect your
dLAN 500 WiFi to a computer or other network device.
Note the Wi-Fi key of the
dLAN 500 WiFi before the networking
procedure. You will find the unique
adapter key on the label on the back of
the housing.
햲 Use a network cable to connect the
dLAN 500 WiFi to network port of your computer
or other network device.
If you only want to use the Wi-Fi func-
tion on the dLAN 500 WiFi, plug the
adapter into a power outlet, without
any cables whatsoever. (see 2.4 Sample
applications)
햳 Plug the dLAN 500 WiFi into a wall socket. As
soon as the indicator light of the dLAN button
lights green (after approx. 45 seconds), the
adapter is ready to operate.
The power outlet should be in range of
the connected network device.
The dLAN 500 WiFi with the cable-
based network device should be easily
accessible.
To switch off the dLAN 500 WiFi or dis-
connect it from the mains supply, pull
the power plug out of the power out-
let.
햴 A dLAN network is set up as soon as at least one
other dLAN adapter has been connected and
plugged into the mains supply. To secure your
dLAN network individually, continue with your
dLAN network configuration. For more informa-
tion, refer to the chapter 5 dLAN network.
햵 In order to connect the dLAN 500 WiFi via Wi-Fi
with your laptop, tablet or smartphone, enter the
previously noted Wi-Fi key as the network security
key.
햶 If you would like to connect additional adapters,
proceed as just described. For more information,
