Page 18 highlights

To use the Access Point for your local network only The Access Point may be used simply as a hub for wireless computers in your local network without Internet access. Use of the Access Point in this manner enables file sharing among client computers. In such a case, a power connection is the only requirement (Page 19). You may also connect computers to the Access Point via a hub, using the 10BASE-T connector to make them wired LAN clients (bridging). HUB To 10BASE-T connector Notes • To connect a hub to the 10BASE-T connector on the Access Point, use a straight-through Ethernet cable (same order color code when side by side). • To connect a computer directly to the 10BASE-T connector on the Access Point, use a crossover Ethernet cable (reverse order color code when side by side). • A category 5 Ethernet cable is recommended. 18
