Manually:
If you have confi gured your
WLAN to not send its SSID (SSID
broadcast is deactivated – the auto-
matic search returns no result), you
have to use the manual search. For
this, select the entry “Manually” and
confi rm with ENTER. Then enter the
SSID for your network with the on-
screen keyboard (see fi gure on top of
page 24 of the operating instructions
– be sure to consider small/capital let-
ters) and confi rm with the OK button.
3.5.2.5 Peer-to-Peer WLAN:
Preparatory steps: Before starting the
actual confi guration you will need to set
the IP addresses (as in the infrastructure
mode). In peer-to-peer mode there is no
way to automatically distribute the IP ad-
dresses (DHCP). Instead, you will need to
assign IP addresses to the devices con-
cerned. In our example we create a con-
nection between a notebook and the MS
6. The notebook will be given the address
192.168.46.81 and the MS6 will be given
the address 192.168.46.2. The section on
cable networking already explains which
IP addresses are free and may be used.
Follow the steps below to assign your PC
a manual IP address in Windows 7: :
1. Right click the network environment
(alternatively: Control Panel-> Network
and Sharing Centre).
2. In the navigation pane on the left, click
Change Adapter Settings.
3. Double click the option Wireless Net-
work Connection.
4. Double click the option Internet Protocol
Version 4 (TCP/IPv4).
Enter the IP address of the PC here.
Since we have no connection to the
Internet we do not need to enter any-
thing under Standard Gateway or DNS
Server Addresses.
