Setting Up a WLAN in Your Home
Microsoft Windows XP supports WLAN configuration with the
Windows Network Configuration feature.
To set up a WLAN and connect to the Internet in your home, you
need the following equipment:
■ A broadband modem (either DSL or cable) 1 and
high-speed Internet service purchased from an Internet
service provider (ISP).
■ A wireless router (purchased separately) 2.
■ Your wireless computer 3.
The illustration below shows an example of a wireless network
installation that is connected to the Internet.
As your network grows, additional wireless and wired computers
can be connected to the network to access the Internet.
✎
If you need technical assistance to install your home WLAN,
contact the router manufacturer or your ISP.
