CHAPTER 7
Wireless LAN
7.1 Overview
This chapter discusses how to configure the wireless network settings in your PLA. See the appendices for
more detailed information about wireless networks.
The following figure provides an example of a wireless network.
Figure 17 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 PLA is the AP.
7.1.1 Powerline Extended Wireless LAN
The PLA 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 18 on page 32:
• PE = Powerline Extender (= PLA here)
