Most wireless networks have an optional security system that requires devices that access the network
to transmit an encrypted security code called an Access or
Security Key
. The
Security Key
is based on
a Pass Phrase, typically a word or a series of letters and numbers of a specified length you were asked
to enter when you set up security for your wireless network. If you use this method of setting up the
network connection, and have a
Security Key
for your wireless network, you will have to enter the Pass
Phrase during the the automatic or manual setup process.
