Access Points
This router has an integrated 802.11n radio that allows you to create an access point for wireless LAN clients. The
security/encryption/authentication options are grouped in a wireless Prole, and each congured prole will be
available for selection in the AP conguration menu. The prole denes various parameters for the AP, including
the security between the wireless client and the AP, and can be shared between multiple APs instances on the
same device when needed.
Up to four unique wireless networks can be created by conguring multiple “virtual” APs . Each such virtual AP
appears as an independent AP (unique SSID) to supported clients in the environment, but is actually running on
the same physical radio integrated with this router.
Note: Proles may be thought of as a grouping of AP parameters that can then be applied to not just one but multiple
AP instances (SSIDs), thus avoiding duplication if the same parameters are to be used on multiple AP instances or SSIDs.
The Wireless Network Setup Wizard is available for users new to wireless networking. By going through a few
conguration pages you can enable a Wi-Fi™ network on your LAN and allow supported 802.11 clients to connect
to the congured Access Point. To run the wizard, refer to “#6 Wireless Network Setup” on page 12.
