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.

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

c.In the Data encryption list, select WEP.

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.)

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.
