Connecting Wireless Clients to your Network

Buffalo supports 3 different methods for connecting your wireless device network.

Buffalo Client Manager - Install Buffalo’s Client Manager software to survey and connect to any supported wireless networks. Client Manager allows for detailed profiles to be configured for each connection. Please see page 7 for Client Manager installation instructions.

AOSS - Buffalo’s push button wireless setup technology allows for one touch wireless connection setup (including security) with any

compatible AOSS Wireless Router or AP. This requires installing Client Manager. Please see page 7 for Client Manager installation instructions. After installation, please see page 10 for AOSS setup.

Windows XP Wireless Zero Config - Windows XP’s built in wireless configuration utility. This requires no additional software installation but doesn’t offer detailed profiles or AOSS. NOTE: Zero Config is only available on Windows XP. Please see page

20 for Zero Config instructions.

Client Manager

Client Manager can be used to survey and connect to available access points, congure WPA/WEP encryption, and create connection proles.

Note: Client Manager does not function properly if the Windows XP Wireless Zero

Conguration Service is enabled. When Client Manager is installed, Windows XP Wireless Zero Conguration is automatically disabled.

Installing Client Manager

Insert the AirNavigator CD into the CDROM drive of you computer. If the Air Navigator Setup Wizard does not launch automatically, launch it manually by clicking Start and then Run. Enter D:\ Setup.exe in the dialog box that appears.

Click OK. Select Install Wireless Client Manager.

Using AOSS

AOSS (AirStation One-Touch Secure System) is a simple, one-touch setup for connecting wireless clients to an access point while enforcing the most secure possible connection encryption type. Users no longer need to worry about choosing the proper security protocols, IP addresses, or SSID. AOSS determines

the optimal connection and congures

itself in seconds. If your router doesn’t support AOSS, turn to page 6 to

congure your connection manually with Client Manager or Wireless Zero Cong.

The AOSS button for this wireless client is in its Client Manager software. Start Client Manager by right clicking on the black antenna icon in your System Tray, or by launching the Client Manager from your Start Menu: Programs >> Buffalo >>AirStation Utility >> Client Manager.

Using AOSS

• From the Status Screen, select the Proles tab.

• Initiate AOSS by pressing the AOSS button on the Access Point. Hold it down until the

AOSS LED begins to ash.

• Now, click the blue AOSS button on the Client Manager’s screen. The AOSS wizard will

appear.

Using AOSS

Once AOSS is complete (about 30 seconds), the connection is archived as a prole for later

use. To minimize Client Manager to the system tray, click the ‘X’ in the top right corner.

Notes:

AOSS will scan for an AOSS partner for about two minutes. If it times out before nding

one, just press the AOSS buttons again.

Output power is reduced to 25% of normal during AOSS for security reasons. If you’re having trouble making an AOSS connection, temporarily move the devices closer together.

AOSS will automatically use the highest level of security available for all currently connected wireless devices.

If you have trouble connecting with AOSS, temorarily disable all personal rewalls on your

PC, such as ZoneAlarm or Microsoft Personal Firewall. These programs may be re-enabled

after AOSS has nished.

Client Manager Conguration

You may use Client Manager to congure your wireless network. Client Manager consists of the Status page, the Survey page, and the Proles page. You can access each page by

clicking the corresponding button on Client Manager. In addition to these pages, several

dialog boxes are also available. You can access the Edit Prole dialog box, New Prole dialog box, IP Conguration dialog box, or WEP Conguration dialog box using the Client

Manager pages. You may also initiate an AOSS session.
