Connect to a wireless ad hoc network

You can use the Wireless Setup Wizard to connect the HP All-in-One to a wireless ad hoc network.

To connect to a wireless ad hoc network

1.Press Setup.

2.Press the down arrow button until Network is highlighted, and then press OK.

3.Press the down arrow button to highlight Wireless Setup Wizard, and then press OK.

This runs the Wireless Setup Wizard. The setup wizard searches for available networks, and then displays a list of detected network names (SSIDs). The infrastructure networks appear first in the list, followed by available ad hoc networks. The networks with the strongest signal appear first, the weakest appear last.

4.On the display, look for the network name you created on your computer (for example, Mynetwork).

5.Use the arrow buttons to highlight the network name, and then press OK. If you found your network name and selected it, go on to step 6.

If you do not see your network name in the list a. Select Enter a New Network Name (SSID).

The visual keyboard appears.

b. Enter the SSID. Use the arrow buttons on the control panel to highlight a letter or number on the visual keyboard, and then press OK to select it.

NOTE: You must enter the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small) letters. Otherwise, the wireless connection will fail.

c. When you are finished entering the new SSID, use the arrow buttons to highlight Done on the visual keyboard, and then press OK.

TIP: If the product is unable to discover the network based on the network name you entered, you will see the following prompts. You may want to move the product closer to the computer and try running the Wireless Setup Wizard again to automatically discover the network.
