SSID: The name of the home wireless network.
Security type: The wireless adapter supports several security protocols. Please refer
to the wireless router user’s manual for suitable type (default one works for most
routers).
Password: The password for home wireless network.
DHCP: If yes, the wireless router will assign an IP to the gateway. This is most
commonly used (no need to change unless for advanced users).
IP: If DHCP is set to “NO”, users could fix an IP to the gateway. This function is only for
advanced users, who should be responsible for confliction with other network devices
if this IP address is not set properly.
Step-4: plug in the wireless adapter, and then reboot gateway.
If Wi-Fi is connected, a signal
strength bar at the left upper
corner and an IP address at the
bottom should be notified.
