Buffalo Technology P4LWAG manual Wireless Profile

Wireless Profile:

When connecting to a wireless network, the LinkTheater will scan for visible wireless networks. The LinkTheater supports connections on three different wireless technologies: 802.11a, 802.11b, and 802.11g. It will list all types of wireless networks together. It will also list if they’re using encryption and in certain cases what type.

Once the wireless scan is complete, you will need to choose your wireless network. Press the remote’s ENTER or right arrow key to select a network.

Alternatively, if you wish to manually enter SSID information, you may select ‘Manually Enter SSID’ and then fill out the appropriate network information on the following screen(s).

The next status page will prompt you for additional information including encryption key info. The Security type should automatically be set to the appropriate setting for that network:

Open = Networks that are open or that use WEP encryption

WPA Personal – Networks are use WPA Personal (WPA-PSK TKIP)

Shared = A rare encryption that requires a key to be securely passed over a non-802.11 network. Shared networks are extremely rare.

If applicable, please input the WEP (hex) or WPA Personal (alphanumeric) key into the key field. Highlight the key field, press the remote’s ENTER key, type the key in, and press ENTER again when finished. Use the 0-9 keys in sequence to type numbers and letters into the field (similar to how a cell phone works). For capital letters, please cycle through the lower case and numbers first. The left arrow key is used for backspace, the right arrow key for space.

Select ‘Continue’ when done.
