Appendix A: Configuring Security Settings on Wireless Clients
Configuring a Client to Access an Unsecure Network
(Plain Text mode)
If the access point or wireless network to which you want to connect is configured as
“Plain Text” security mode (no security), you need to configure the client accordingly. A
client using no security to connect is configured with Network Authentication “Open” to
that network and Data Encryption “Disabled” as described below.
If you do have security configured on a client for properties of an unsecure network, the
security settings actually can prevent successful access to the network because of the
mismatch between client and access point security configurations.
To configure the client to not use any security, bring up the client Network Properties
dialog and configure the following settings.
Set Network Authentication to
Open
Set Data Encryption to
Disabled
Association Tab
Network Authentication
Open
Data Encryption
Disabled
