Once the included Wi-Fi adapter is attached to LiveShot, an entry will appear for WLAN network.
Because users tend to change Wi-Fi networks often, a special function is offered under the Locations
feature.
The Default Location of the WLAN adapter has a network choice of “ Auto ”. In this mode, LiveShot will
scan for all other previous Locations that have been configured. It will attach and use the first Wi-Fi
signal found to match any previous Location configured.
Setting up a new WLAN location is done by choosing a new Wi-Fi network to attach to. Whether the
new location is entered manually or found by pressing the “
scan ” button, the location will be named
after the Wi-Fi SSID. The Wi-Fi adapter provided is dual-band and will list all networks found in the 2.4
and 5.8 GHz Wi-Fi band. Networks with hidden IDs can be entered manually.
Once a network is chosen, the security requirements of that network will be detected. LiveShot
supports networks with
WEP , WPA , WPA2 , and WPA Enterprise ( 802.11x ) security requirements.
Entries will be offered for user and/or passcodes for the detected network security.

Some 3G and 4G modems require the proper setting of an APN (Access Point Name) value to
configure which wireless network they should operate on. This, if necessary, is usually the only setting
required by the user to get these modems to work. If a modem is supported by a USA wireless network,
this APN is usually chosen by default, and may need to be changed for non-US networks. Other
modems may support commands that “ instruct ” which APN value to use, and LiveShot will use these
commands and automatically populate APN where possible.
