Prepare a Windows XP computer

First prepare your computer for connecting to the network, and then create a network profile.

To prepare your computer

1.Quit all applications running on your computer, and temporarily disable all firewalls including the internal XP firewall and any other firewall or virus detection software.

2.To protect your computer from virus infection, disable your Internet connection. If you have cable or DSL, disconnect the Ethernet cable from the back of your computer. If you have dial-up, disconnect the phone cord.

3.Disable all LAN connections (including Ethernet) other than your wireless connection. Also, disable all IEEE 1394 (such as Firewire, i.LINK or Lynx) to Ethernet connections.

To create a network profile

Note The HP All-in-One comes configured with a network profile with hpsetup as the SSID. However, for security and privacy HP recommends you create a new network profile on your computer as described here, and then run the Wireless Setup Wizard to detect the new network.
