of the Thomson Gateway WLAN.

Registering stations via the association button
To register new wireless stations via the association button:
1 Push the Association button on the Thomson Gateway front or back panel (depending on the device) for
at least two seconds.
The WLAN LED toggles between green and red.
The ACL will be unlocked for a time frame of one minute. Any new wireless station successfully
attempting to connect to the Thomson Gateway (having the correct wireless settings, that is the network
name and, if required, the network key) within the time frame of one minute, will be added to the table.
The Thomson Gateway automatically saves your current configuration at the end of the registration
phase.
2 Successfully registered stations are associated to the Thomson Gateway WLAN. Depending on your
WLAN client adapter, a wireless icon may become green or a message similar to the following may
appear: “Successfully joined Wireless network SpeedTouch123456”.
3 The wireless stations will be added to the Thomson Gateway ACL.
