Configuring a Network
On the Wireless Networks Tab (see page 5-17), you can
tap Add.
Complete the tab windows and tap OK.
Note: The settings on these tab windows are interrelated. This means that selecting one may disable access to others.
Profile Info Tab
Field Description
Network Profile This is the name that appears in the Configured Networks list and, by default, is the same as the
broadcast SSID.
Note that there is nothing special about the name "default". You could configure any other record
similarly and it would behave the same way.
Network Name This is the SSID of the AP. If the AP broadcasts its SSID, then this value is retrieved from the Available
Networks list and this field is completed automatically. If the SSID does not broadcast, then the field will
be active and you must manually enter the value here.
Peer-to-Peer
Group Select this option to have two or more client workstations communicate with each other without the
benefit of an AP, otherwise known as ad hoc mode.
You should also select Do Active Scan and, on the WEP Mgmt tab, select Use key for data
encryption while entering a common key for both sides. WPA is not supported in this mode.
Do active scan Select this option whenever the AP (or client, for ad hoc mode) is not broadcasting its SSID.
Note: This option is not available when Associate with any available network is selected.
Authentication
Profile Select the authentication profile associated with this network and tap View. The drop-down list contains
client profile names created in the User tab of the client configuration area; see
User Tab on page 5-13.
