Connecting the Computer via Wireless LAN
Overview
You can connect computers and other network devices to the
FRITZ!Box without cables via wireless LAN.
Secure Wireless Connections
Wireless connections can be secured using encryption. Two things are
required for encryption:
•
an encryption technique
•
a key
An encryption technique and a network key are preconfigured in the
FRITZ!Box. A network device that would like to connect with the
FRITZ!Box must register with the FRITZ!Box using the network key.
The network key can be made known to a network device in the
following ways:
•
by entering the network key manually
•
by transmitting the network key via WPS
As soon as the network key is known, a secure wireless connection is
established.
