Chapter 5

For Mac OS X

Your HP all-in-one comes configured with a network profile named hpsetup. However, for security and privacy we recommend you create a new network profile on your Macintosh as described here, and then use the Wireless Setup Wizard to detect the new network (as described in the next section).

To create a new network profile on your Mac OS X

1Make sure that your AirPort is turned on.

AirPort icon

To check this, click on the Airport icon in the upper-right part of the screen. If Turn Airport On is available, select it to turn on the AirPort.

If the AirPort icon is not present, do the following:

a On the Network Preferences screen, select Airport Panel. b Enable Allow the computer to create networks.

c Enable Show Airport status in menu bar.

2Click the AirPort icon.

3Select Create Network….

4On the Computer to Computer dialog, click in the Name box and enter a new network name.

For example you can type the name Mynetwork (or something more meaningful, such as your initials).

Note Notice that the M in Mynetwork is uppercase (capital), and the rest of the letters are lowercase (small). This is important to remember in case you need to enter the SSID at a later time on the Wireless Setup Wizard.

5In the Channel box, use the default Automatic setting.

6Click Show Options.

7To enable encryption for security, select the Encryption checkbox.

8In the Password box, type a password 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.

Alternatively, you can use HEX (hexidecimal) characters for the password. A HEX password must be 10 characters for 40 bit encryption, or 26 characters for 128 bit encryption. For definitions of ASCII and HEX, see the Glossary.

9In the Confirm box, type the same password.

10Write down your password, which on your HP all-in-one is called a WEP key. You will need your WEP key when set up you use the Wireless Setup Wizard.

11Click OK.

12Go to your HP all-in-one and use the Wireless Setup Wizard to connect your HP all-in-one to the wireless network. See Connect to the network using the Wireless Setup Wizard.
