Thomas wants to set up a WiFi network so that he can use his notebook to access the Internet. In this WiFi
network, the WX Device serves as an access point (AP), and the notebook is the WiFi client. The WiFi
client can access the Internet through the AP.
Thomas has to configure the WiFi network settings on the WX Device. Then he can set up a WiFi network
using WPS (
Section 5.2.2 on page 73
) or manual configuration (

).
