Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.5 Administrator’s Guide

Configuring the WLAN settings

1. From the desktop menu, click System Setup, and then click Network Setup.
   The Network Setup dialog box is displayed.
2. Click the WLAN tab, and do the following:
   
   1. Add—Use this option to add and configure a new SSID connection.
      You can configure the SSID connection from the available security type options.

      

      After you configure the SSID connection, the added SSID connection is listed on the page of the WLAN tab.
   2. Remove—Use this option if you want to remove a SSID connection by selecting the SSID connection from the list.
   3. Properties—Use this option to view and configure the authentication properties of a SSID connection that is displayed in the list.
   4. Select the Disable Wireless Device check box, if you want to disable a wireless device.
      • Always—Click this radio button if you want to disable the wireless device at all times.
      • EnetUp—Click this radio button if you want to disable the wireless device whenever the wired network is connected.
3. Click OK to save the settings.
   NOTE:From ThinOS version 8.5, device reboot is not required to change the network settings. All the changes take effect immediately. For example, ThinOS connects to the new wireless SSID immediately without reboot. However for ARM platforms—Wyse 3010 thin client, and Wyse 3020 thin client—the disable/enable wireless requires reboot.
