Configure your WLA2-G54C's network connection by referring to the above mentioned instructions. Once the WLA2-G54C has been configured, follow the directions to install your wireless client device and its drivers if necessary. Certain wireless client adapters require client software to configure them. NOTE: If the wireless client adapter is installed on a PC, then the AOSS client manager will need to be installed as well. If your wireless client adapter is a standalone device that does not require a PC, then just power up the device. Standalone Devices: Ethernet Converters and Access Point Bridges Client Manager Devices: CardBus, USB, and PCI Adapters. Standalone AOSS Device Client Manager Device Now that the WLA2-G54C and wireless client adapter are installed, you can use AOSS to configure them. To begin the configuration, press the AOSS button in the WLA2G54C's configuration. The AOSS menus can be found under the `Advanced' Configuration, Management, AOSS. This is the time-slot required to initiate the wireless client adapter. Refer to your wireless client adapter's AOSS supplement to initiate the wireless client adapter's AOSS mode. Once the client adapter has begun communicating with the AOSS router, AOSS client will report a successful AOSS connection. This indicates that the AOSS process has begun and the two devices are configuring themselves. Please refer to your wireless client adapter's supplement for the remainder of the setup. ADDITIONAL AOSS INFORMATION: Only one AOSS wireless client adapter can be configured to the AOSS access point at a time. Thus, the button will need to be repressed for each additional AOSS wireless client adapter that will be connected. It is not necessary to reconfigure AOSS client devices that have already been configured via AOSS, unless significant changes have been made to the wireless network. Do not attempt to configure two separate AOSS networks at the same time, as it may cause undesired configurations. If an undesired client has connected via AOSS, it can be disconnected from within the WLA2-G54C's advanced configuration AOSS menus.
