To use the WLAN 11n USB Client Adapter with a computing device, the WLAN
Adapter must be equipped with a proper Interface. All drivers and supporting
software for the WLAN Adapter must be installed and configured first.
Ask your system administrator for the following information, which
you may need to provide during driver installation :
Your Wireless Client
Name. Your Wireless
SSID.
Your personal computer’s unique client name and
workgroup name. For your network account, your user
name and password.
Your IP address, gateway address, and subnet mask if you’re
not using a DHCP client.
Any personal computer on a network is identified by a unique
network address. There are two methods to assign a network
address to a personal computer on a TCP/IP network :
Static IP addressing.
Dynamic IP addressing (DHCP Client).
In network with static IP addressing, the network administrator
manually assigns an IP address to each personal computer. Once a
static IP address is assigned, a personal computer uses the same IP
address every time it reboots and logs on to the network. You may
manually change the IP address in the
Network Properties dialog box.
Network using static IP address is
easy to set up and do not require additional network management
software.
In network with dynamic IP addressing, a DHCP server in the
network dynamically assigns IP addresses to all clients every time
they log on to the network. Network using dynamic IP address
requires setting up and running a DHCP Server.
