Connect to a Network
The WiFi phone scans for wireless networks when you turn it on. If
no network is available, you can scan for the network again, or try
later. See “Network” on page 28. Also see “Wireless Networks” on
page 4-36.
Many wireless networks use security such as WEP or WPA-PSK.
These security features encrypt data, and require you to enter a
passphrase or keys before you can use the network. After you
have entered the information, the WiFi phone remembers it,
unless you sign out from the On/Off menu or reset the WiFi phone.
Connect to a Network with Wireless Security
The first time that you select a wireless network with security, a
message asks if you would like to try an advanced configuration.
To connect to the network:
1.With the soft key, select Advanced.
2.Select the network.
3.Select Connect.
The network authentication choices are Open, Shared, and
WPA PSK. For Access Point Authentication you can disable or
enable WEP security.
