The Profile Screen
A profile is a set of wireless parameters that you need to connect to a wireless network. With a
profile activated, each time you start the G-120, it automatically scans for the specific SSID
and joins that network with the pre-defined wireless security settings. If the specified network
is not available, the G-120 cannot connect to a network.
If you do not configure and activate a profile, each time you start the G-120, the G-120 uses
the default profile to connect to any available network with security disabled.
The default profile is a profile that allows you to connect to any SSID without security.
Click the
Profile
tab in the ZyXEL utility program to display the
Profile
screen as shown next.
The profile function allows you to save the wireless network settings in this screen, or use one
of the pre-configured network profiles.
