CHAPTER 10
Wireless LAN
10.1 Overview
This chapter discusses how to configure the wireless network settings in your PLA4231. See the
appendices for more detailed information about wireless networks.
The following figure provides an example of a wireless network.
Figure 43 Example of a Wireless Network
The wireless network is the part in the blue circle. In this wireless network, devices A and B are
called wireless clients. The wireless clients use the access point (AP) to interact with other devices
(such as the printer) or with the Internet. Your PLA4231 is the AP.
10.1.1 Powerline Extended Wireless LAN
The PLA4231 is a wireless Powerline Extender (PE) that allows you to extend your original wireless
network, connected to a compatible Powerline Adapter (PA) over a power cable. This is the key for
items in Figure 44 on page 68:
• PE = Powerline Extender (= PLA4231 here)
• PEN = PE wireless Network
