tion machine. All required information for setting the
parameters, like name of the network (SSID), type of
wireless network, WEP key, IP address and subnet
mask must match the data from the network. You
can obtain the necessary information from the net-
work configuration of your computer or the access
point (Access Point, Router).

WEP KEY
With 64-bit encryption, the WEP key
must be either 5 characters (ASCII) or 10
numbers (hexadecimal). With 128-bit
encryption, the WEP key must be either
13 characters (ASCII) or 26 numbers
(hexadecimal). You can find the WEP key
in the network settings of your PC.

WPA KEY
Enter an 8 to 63 character long pass-
word. The password can contain alpha-
numerical characters—numbers and let-
ters—and any other symbol available on
the keypad. The only invalid character is
"€” (the euro currency symbol).

The automatic configuration of IP
address and subnet mask on the con-

The first three blocks of numbers refer
to the IP field; this information must
match the IP address on your computer.
The last three digits determine are the
individual IP address of the device. You
