HP C7288, C7250, C7280 manual To connect the HP All-in-One with the Wireless Setup Wizard

CAUTION: To prevent other users from accessing your wireless network, HP strongly recommends using a password or passphrase (WPA or WEP security) and a unique network name (SSID) for your wireless router. Your wireless router might have been shipped with a default network name, which is typically the manufacturer name. If you use the default network name, your network can be easily accessed by other users using the same default network name (SSID). It also means that the HP All-in-One might accidently connect to a different wireless network in your area which uses the same network name. If this happens you will not be able to access the HP All-in-One. For more information on how to change the network name, see the documentation that came with your wireless router.

NOTE: Before connecting to a wireless infrastructure network, ensure that the ethernet cable is not connected to the HP All-in-One.

To connect the HP All-in-One with the Wireless Setup Wizard

1.Write down the following information about your wireless router or access point:

•Network Name (also called SSID)

•WEP Key, WPA Passphrase (if needed)

If you do not know where to find this information, see the documentation that came with your wireless router or access point. You might be able to find the network name (SSID) and the WEP key or WPA passphrase on the Embedded Web Server for the wireless router or access point.

NOTE: HP provides an online tool that might be able to find your wireless security settings automatically. Go to: www.hp.com/go/networksetup.
