Configuring PCs to be Wireless Clients
The first step is similar to that of wired PCs connected to the Fast
Ethernet. We have to ensure that the wireless client gets an IP address
that it will use to communicate with the router and other PCs across the
network.
Hence, please note that in Windows XP, you will need to select the
wireless network connection corresponding to the wireless adapter you
use.
Once you have completed the IP configuration for the wireless client,
you may proceed to set up your wireless client’s SSID (Network name)
so that it will connect with the router.
!
Note for Windows 98SE/ME/2000 users: the following
configuration steps for wireless client setup may differ for
different wireless Ethernet adapters with vendor specific
driver and utilities. Please refer to your adapter’s manual
for more information.
