Configuring the Wireless
Network Access Point
The Wireless Network Access Point can be configured one of two ways,
through the USB Utility or the Access Point SNMP Configuration Utility.
USB Utility
The USB Utility can be used when configuring the Wireless Network Access
Point through a USB connection and is compatible with Windows 98,
Millennium, and 2000.
Access Point SNMP Configuration Utility
The Access Point SNMP Configuration Utility can be used when configuring
the Wireless Network Access Point through an Ethernet connection and is com-
patible with all Windows Operating Systems. You may also configure the
Access Point through its wireless connections.
Insert the Setup Utility CD into your CD-ROM Drive. The Setup Utility
should run automatically and
the screen shown on the top of
the next page should appear.
If it does not, click the Start
button and choose Run. In the
box that appears, enter
D:\setup.exe (where “D” is
the letter of your CD-ROM
drive).

Wireless Network Access Point
Linux/Unix Users: Since the Configuration Utility is written for Windows
users, you will have to configure the Wireless Access Point using SNMP. A con-
figurable MIB file (AT76C510.MIB) can be found on the Setup Utility CD.
Remember, Linksys does not support Linux or Unix as an operating system.
This file is for Linux/Unix users only, and is not necessary for any Windows
installation.
Note: This useful menu screen can be accessed at any time, simply by insert-
ing the Setup Utility CD into your CD-ROM drive. From this menu, software
can be uninstalled, and you may view online documentation and contact infor-
mation. Your AP will still work after uninstalling the Utility.
