Communicating with an Access Point (infrastructure)
An infrastructure network is a network that extends an existing wired local network to wireless devices by
providing an Access Point, for example the Sony PCWA-A200 Access Point. The Access Point bridges the
wireless and wired LAN and acts as a central controller for the Wireless LAN. The Access Point coordinates
transmission and reception from multiple wireless devices within a specific range.
To communicate with an Access Point (infrastructure), proceed as follows:
1 Turn on the Wireless switch on the left side of the computer.
The Switch wireless devices dialog box appears.
2 Select Wireless LAN and click OK.
The Wireless Switcher button in the taskbar changes into Wireless LAN.
3 Right-click the network icon in the taskbar displaying the message Wireless Network Connection.
4 Click View Available Wireless Networks.
The Connect to Wireless Network dialog box appears.
5 Select the network you want to use.
