Users no longer need to worry about choosing the proper security protocols, IP addresses, or SSID. AOSS determines the optimal connection and configures itself in seconds. Once AOSS has been setup, your other devices will need to be connected to the wireless network by performing AOSS or by manually adding the device to the wireless network. Please consult the user manual that came with your AOSS Wireless Router or Access Point to retrieve the necessary connection information.
• The AOSS button for the WLI-PCI-G300N is in its Client Manager software, which you installed on page 6.
