[. . . ] EN Dear Customer, Gigaset Communications GmbH is the legal successor to Siemens Home and Office Communication Devices GmbH & Co. Any statements made by Siemens AG or SHC that are found in the user guides should therefore be understood as statements of Gigaset Communications GmbH. Sehr geehrte Kundin, sehr geehrter Kunde, die Gigaset Communications GmbH ist Rechtsnachfolgerin der Siemens Home and Office Communication Devices GmbH & Co. KG (SHC), die ihrerseits das Gigaset-Geschäft der Siemens AG fortführte. [. . . ] Otherwise, you will no longer be able to access the user interface and an appropriate error message will be shown. If, by mistake, you have denied all PCs access to the Gigaset SE365 WLAN, you have two choices: u You can completely reset the Gigaset SE365 WLAN (see page 14). u You can connect a PC to the Gigaset SE365 WLAN using one of the LAN con- nections (by cable). As MAC access control only applies to PCs that are connected "wirelessly", you can use this PC to change the configuration. ì To go to the next step, click Next >. 43 Security Setup Wizard Saving settings On the next screen you conclude the wizard and save the settings. You will be informed of any security risks that still exist. ì Click Finish to close the wizard and save the settings. If you have changed the default settings, the device is restarted. Please remember: u If you have activated encryption, the wireless connection will be blocked until you enter the appropriate key in the other devices on the network. u If you use the Gigaset SE365 WLAN in Repeater or Ethernet adapter operating mode, the set keys must match those in the access point. If an error is made, you no longer have access to the wireless network. If you do not immediately run the Security Setup Wizard settings for an access point with encryption or the keys or the encryption type do not match, the PC cannot connect to the Gigaset SE365 WLAN. This is because there is then no accessible DHCP server or the PC and repeater have no static IP addresses. In this case, you must return the Gigaset SE365 WLAN to the factory settings (see section (see page 14)) and run the Basic Setup Wizard again. 44 Configuring the Advanced Settings Configuring the Advanced Settings In the Advanced Settings menu, you can configure all the options for the Gigaset SE365 WLAN. If you wish, you can also make changes to the settings you made using the wizards. Menu Local Network Wireless Network Description You can configure the settings for your local network (page 46). You can configure the wireless network and protect your device and network against eavesdropping (see page 49). You can also optimise the WLAN transmission quality and adapt it to your requirements (range, transmission rate). You can restart the device (see page 64) and update the firmware (see page 64). 45 Configuring the Advanced Settings Local Network In the Local Network menu, you can determine the settings for assigning IP addresses. In Ethernet adapter operating mode, this page only shows the assigned IP address and the defined subnet mask. ì Select Advanced Settings ­ Local Network. Repeater/Access point operating mode The preset IP address for your Gigaset SE365 WLAN is 192. 168. 2. 254. ì If you want to change this, enter the desired IP address and subnet mask in the fields. Make sure that the IP address you assign complies with the default settings of the router used in your network and with the conventions for private IP addresses described in the document "Configuring the local network" delivered on CD. 46 Configuring the Advanced Settings If you want to use several Gigaset SE365 WLAN in the same network, make sure you assign different IP addresses to each of them. Use an address block that is within the selected subnet but not in the address block of the addresses automatically assigned by the DHCP server in your network. See also "Example of LAN settings with two repeaters" on page 30. You can decide whether to use the Gigaset SE365 WLAN's integrated DHCP server. Depending on the configuration of your network, it may be better to deactivate the Gigaset SE365 WLAN's integrated DHCP server. ì To do this, select Off for the DHCP Server. However, this is only necessary, if ­ another DHCP server is already being used in your network, ­ you are using more than one Gigaset SE365 WLAN in the same network.
