b.If there is a Network Authentication list, select Open. Otherwise, go to the next step.

c.In the Data encryption list, select WEP.

Note It is possible to create a network that does not use a WEP key. However, HP recommends using a WEP key in order to secure your network.

d.Make sure that the check box is not selected next to The key is provided for me automatically. If it is selected, click the check box to clear it.

e.In the Network key box, type a WEP key that has exactly 5 or exactly 13 alphanumeric (ASCII) characters. For example, if you enter 5 characters, you might enter ABCDE or 12345. Or, if you enter 13 characters, you might enter ABCDEF1234567. (12345 and ABCDE are examples only. Select a combination of your choosing.)

Alternatively, you can use HEX (hexadecimal) characters for the WEP key. A HEX WEP key must be 10 characters for 40 bit encryption, or 26 characters for 128 bit encryption.

f.In the Confirm network key box, type the same WEP key you typed in the previous step.

g.Write down the WEP key exactly as you typed it, including uppercase and lowercase letters.

Note You must remember the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small) letters. If you enter your WEP key incorrectly on the HP All-in- One, the wireless connection will fail.

h.Select the check box for This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network; wireless access points are not used.
