This section describes the AMG1312-T Series’s Network Setting > Wireless screens. Use these
screens to set up your AMG1312-T Series’s wireless connection.
•Use the General screen to enable the Wireless LAN, enter the SSID and select the wireless
security mode (Section 7.2 on page 88).
•Use the More/Guest AP screen (see Section 7.3 on page 94) to set up multiple wireless
networks on your AMG1312-T Series and/or set up a guest wireless network on your AMG1312-T
Seriesto allow associated wireless clients to access the Internet.
•Use the MAC Authentication screen to allow or deny wireless clients based on their MAC
addresses from connecting to the AMG1312-T Series (Section 7.4 on page 96).
•Use the WPS screen (see Section 7.5 on page 97) to enable or disable WPS, generate a security
PIN (Personal Identification Number) and see information about the AMG1312-T Series’s WPS
status.
•Use the WDS screen (see Section 7.6 on page 99) to set up a Wireless Distribution System, in
which the AMG1312-T Series acts as a bridge with other ZyXEL access points.
•Use the WMM screen to enable WiFi MultiMedia (WMM) to ensure quality of service in wireless
networks for multimedia applications (Section 7.7 on page 100).

You don’t necessarily need to use all these screens to set up your wireless connection. For example,
you may just want to set up a network name, a wireless radio channel and security in the General
screen.
