Chapter 2

Installation

Soft AP (Windows XP Only)

Soft AP mode allows the Wireless LAN card to act as a virtual access point. The

computer needs to be connected to a wired network using an Ethernet connection

in order to provide network access to Wireless LAN clients.

1. Select Soft AP Mode

3. Enable ICS* and Firewall if desired. Refer

to Windows help for information on “Inter-

net Connection Sharing”.

2. Drag and drop a wired network connection

next to the globe icon.

4. You can easily switch between Soft AP and

Station mode by right clicking the taskbar

icon and selecting “A-S Change Mode”.

*ICS is used to share this computer’s Internet connection with the rest of the computers on your

network. When this computer is connected to the Internet, communication to and from the Inter-

net to all the computers on your network are sent through this computer, called the host com-

puter. Other computers can send and receive email and access the Web as if it were connected

directly to the Internet.
