Automatic Wireless Network Setup
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 wireless 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 automatic or manual setup process.
✎
Depending on your router or modem, you may be able to use a WPS PIN instead.
