Introduction
The Gigaset WLAN Repeater offers various possibilities for use in wired and wireless net-
works. It enables very simple integration of remote PCs in a network. You can also con-
nect PCs in one or more wireless networks or with a wired network.
Possible uses
You can use your Gigaset WLAN Repeater in various functions in your network. The
device provides various operating modes that you can choose to suit your require-
ments.
Use as Repeater
You can use the Gigaset WLAN Repeater to increase the coverage of your wireless net-
work. Set it up at the limit of the range of your wireless network. The Gigaset WLAN
Repeater will now transmit data traffic into its own wireless area. This allows you to set
up wireless networks that cover a larger area than would be possible with just one wire-
less router (e.g. Gigaset SE505 dsl/cable).
In this case you need to operate your Gigaset WLAN Repeater in
Repeater mode
.
PCs that you want to connect to a wireless local network via a Gigaset WLAN Repeater
must have a wireless network adapter, such as a Gigaset PC Card 54.
