16. The modem will automatically obtain a connection with your provider. It can take
up to a few minutes to connect with your provider the first time.
Hint: If you have already made a provider configuration, and you want to add a new
provider configuration, there is no need to remove your old connection. The moment
‘Quick Start’ will be used again, the old connection will be overwritten automatically.
4.0 Manually setup and secure the wireless
network
Because everyone can receive a network’s wireless signal, we recommend you to
secure your wireless network. There are several security methods available. To use
one of the methods, it is very important that each wireless adapter must support this
wireless security form. We recommend you to use the strongest level of wireless
security: WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access).

WPA(2) is supported from Windows XP and up. This type of security cannot be used

for these Windows systems. If you do not have Windows XP, Windows Vista or
Windows 7, or the correct software, continue with chapter 4.3.
