where can i get some information on wireless card instilation procedures? since IP400 it has a DHCP server built in to it can i use it as a wireless access point or a router??
 
Yes you can but you need a Avaya PCMCI-Card in the small-office and a licence for it.

Thank you Big70 i do have the card and the licence but i could not find any instructions on this topic.
 
SSID
The Service Set Identifier (SSID) tab.

Network Name: Default = IP Office Wireless.Net
A unique name used to identify and distinguish the Avaya IP Office - Small Office Edition wireless LAN from other wireless LANs.

Wireless Mac Address:
Displays a list of the MAC addresses of the devices currently connected to the wireless LAN.

Frequency/Channel: Default = 6
The 802.11b wireless frequency band is sub-divided into a number of channels. In locations where there are multiple wireless LANs or multiple access points to the same wireless LAN, each access point should use a separate channel. Devices connecting to a wireless LAN will automatically connect to the channel providing the strongest signal.

The number of channels available is country specific. In the US channels 1 to 11 are available. In most of Europe, channels 1 to 13 are available. In Japan only channel 14 is available.

The channel frequencies overlap. For instance, channel 2 shares part of the same frequency band as channels 1 and 3. In areas with mulitple access points, use widely spaced channels, for example 1, 6 and 11, on the different access point.

Accept Any: Default = Off
If on, allows any wireless device to connect to the wireless LAN without having to have a matching wireless network name (SSID) set. When off, only devices configured with a matching wireless network name can connect to the wireless LAN.

(or what do you want to know)
