How to setup Netgear Wireless Access Point?

Any do it? I just bought one, instructions looks daunting. Is it plug
and play? I have a Netgear 4 port wired router with 3 desktop PCs
connected. Now I want to get a laptop into it wirelessly, so I got a
Netgear WG602 Wireless Access Point. Haven't set it up yet, but can I
just "plug and play"? ( the laptop is all setup and running wireless)

You'll have to set your SSID and I'd recommend setting some security,
preferably WPA-PSK and maybe even an access control list.

I'm going to die rather sooner than I'd like. I tried to protect my
neighbours from crime, and became the victim of it. Complications in
hospital following this resulted in a serious illness. I now need a bone
marrow transplant. Many people around the world are waiting for a marrow
transplant, too. Please volunteer to be a marrow donor:
