Configuring a Radio Card
A wireless PC must be configured to communicate with the base station before initial
configuration of the base station can be accomplished. You can configure a PC with a radio
card by using the BSCU or another vendor’s IEEE 802.11 DSSS radio card. If you are using
another vendor’s radio card, see the Cisco Aironet 340 Series Base Station Hardware
Installation Guide.
Follow these steps to configure the PC and radio card using the BSCU:
1
Select Start > Settings > Control Panel > Network > Protocols > TCP/IP (for the Cisco
