2. Basic Installation and
Configuration
This chapter describes how to set up your ProSAFE Dual Band Wireless N Access Point
WNDAP350 for wireless connectivity to your LAN. This basic configuration will enable computers
with 802.11b/g/n or 802.11a/n wireless adapters to do such things as connect to the Internet, or
access printers and files on your LAN.
Note: Indoors, computers can connect over 802.11b/bg/ng or 802.11a/na
wireless networks at ranges of several hundred feet or more. This
distance can allow for others outside your area to access your
network. It is important to take appropriate steps to secure your
network from unauthorized access. The WNDAP350 wireless access
point provides highly effective security features which are covered in
detail in Understanding Security Profiles on page 32. Deploy the
security features appropriate to your needs.
