For instructions on connecting the USB-Link™ 2 and your PC using Mini Access
Point Mode, see Connect Using Wi-Fi, in Chapter 3 of this manual.
Infrastructure Mode (Connecting to your Company’s Network)
In Infrastructure mode, your PC communicates with your company computer
network through a Wireless Access Point (not included), which acts as a bridge
between the wireless network and the wired network. In this mode, the USB-
Link™ 2
is configured to communicate with the same access point. All communi-
cation between the PC and the USB-Link™ 2 passes through the access point.

i The settings for connecting to your company network may differ from one
installation to another. To ensure network security, your Information Tech-
nology (IT) administrator will need to oversee the installation and specify
the appro
priate configuration parameters. Your IT administrator should be
able to pr
operly configure the USB-Link™ 2 for infrastructure mode, using
the USB-Link™ 2 Explorer utility (see Chapter 3 of this manual).
