The Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable

Procedure for installation and configuration

1. First install an Ethernet network card or a wireless
Gigaset PC Card 108 or the Gigaset USB Adapter 108 in the PCs you want to connect
to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable. The installation is described in the products'
user guide.
Please remember:
When installing wireless network adapters, use the default

2. Then make the necessary connections (PCs, modem) to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN
dsl/cable and switch the device on (see section "Connecting the Gigaset SE551
WLAN dsl/cable" on page 19).
3. Before the PCs can communicate with the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable and with
each other in a local network, you have to change their network settings. Configure
these network settings on one PC first so that it can establish a connection to the
Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable. You can then use this PC to configure the device.
To find out how to do this, refer to "Configuring the local network" on page 23.
4. In a wireless connection you establish the link from the PC's wireless network adapt-
er to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable. This is described in the user guide for the
network adapter.
5. Then configure the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable to activate the device's Internet
access (refer to the section "Basic Setup Wizard" on page 56). This will require the
access data from your Internet service provider.

If you want to connect more PCs to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable, configure
their network settings so as to set up the local network (refer to the section entitled
"Configuring the local network" on page 23).

If you want to use the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable's other functions e.g. the com-
prehensive security features, use the router's Security Setup (see page 61) or the
