to activate the service.
3. Click the wireless network you want to connect to and press <Join Network>.
4. If the Wi-Fi source you are connecting to is password protected enter the password to
access the external wireless network and click <Submit>.
Notice the signal strength is 0% as you are not yet connected to the wireless network.
Click <Save & Apply> to tell the Halo to connect to that network.
Notice that now the signal strength now registers greater than 0%.
NOTE: If the signal status is blinking from 0% to 100% this typically means that the Wi-Fi
Network Password/Key was entered incorrectly. Check with the external Wi-Fi Network
Administrator to confirm the correct password. Click the Wireless Security tab and enter
the correct password in the Key field and <Save & Apply>.
5. Click the <Home> Tab to return to the Welcome screen.
