Click the Wifi tab to display the profiles page. Here, you may add your required Wi-Fi profiles.

When you have added a profile or profiles to the WB45NBT, you must select a profile to make active. 
Select the desired profile from your list and click Activate. The profile will now be active when AP mode 
is disabled.  

Note:   You must create an active profile prior to disabling AP mode.  

7.

 

To disable AP mode, click the Advanced tab and then click Disable in the AP Mode section. 

8.

 

Check the status of the AP connection by typing sdc_cli status at the command line in your terminal. 

Note:   The web server that hosts the WebLCM on the WB45 is passively waiting for a connection 

attempt to the WB45 on port 80. Once a connection attempt is made on that port, the 
WebLCM will become active for a period of 10 minutes. If no activity is detected for 10 
minutes then the web server will return to a passive state where it is waiting for a connection 
on port 80.
