Default Help setting up a wireless network (please!)

It happens that Mike Barnes formulated :
Once you've got your configuration screen up, you need to configure your
WAP. Change the "SSID" to a distinctive name so that when you see a
signal on your laptop, you know it's yours and not your neighbour's. :-)

There's lots more to it but I think that's enough for now. Let us know
how you get on.


Most WAP's have wired LAN sockets, so probably his easy option would be
to plug into one of these directly to view the WAP's set up page.

Start by working out what the routers default IP and subnet is, then
once you have logged into the WAP - set that one up to the same subnet
and the same IP as the router, but add a one to the final number of the
IP. Thus - xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx + 1 (192.168.1.1 would therefore become
192.168.1.2)
