Select the desired encryption type for your WiFi network connection. We 
recommend WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Mixed Node.

*Two additional fields will appear after selecting your encryption 
type. We recommend you leave Cipher to the ‘auto’ default unless 
you are an advanced user.

Set your new WiFi password in the box labelled ‘Key’

 using a combination of 

letters, numbers, and characters for best security. 

Make sure you remember 

this!

Click ‘Save & Apply.’

IMPORTANT:

 Users connected wirelessly will need to reconnect to their PRO 

by selecting the named network from their device’s WiFi/Air Port. You will be 
prompted for your new password. You do not need to wait for the spinning 
status wheel to resolve.

Now that you have configured your wireless network settings, it’s time to connect 

to the Internet. Continue onto Step 4. (Pg 14)
