15.9 Wireless Configuration
This section explains how to configure your Gateway’s Wireless settings.
IMPORTANT:
1. If you are connecting to the Gateway via a wireless network adapter, the SSID must be the same for both the
Gateway and your PC’s wireless network adapter. The default SSID for the Gateway is the serial number of the
unit (located below the bar code on the bottom of the unit and also on the Westell shipping carton). Locate and
run the utility software provided with your PC’s Wireless network adapter and enter the SSID value. The PC’s
wireless network adapter must be configured with the SSID (in order to communicate with the Gateway) before
you begin the account setup and configuration procedures. Later, for privacy you can change the SSID.
2. Client PCs can use any wireless 802.11b/g certified card to communicate with the Modem. The Wireless card and
Gateway must use the same security code type. If you use WPA-PSK or WEP wireless security, you must
configure your computer’s wireless adapter for the security code that you use. You can access the settings
in the advanced properties of your wireless network adapter.
3. Be sure to enter the default WEP key into your wireless adapter. The WEP key is located below the barcode on
the bottom of your Gateway.
