To increase security on the Wi-Fi network

2.Click Menu > New.

3.Enter the SSID (Service Set Identifier). You can obtain this information from your wireless service provider.

4.Enter the user name, password, and domain.

5.Select an Authentication Type.

By default, the Authentication Type for your phone is Open System authentication.

Notes • By default, the LEAP screen displays data that you entered previously. However, you can modify or delete the data as required by clicking Menu > Modify or Menu

> Delete on the LEAP screen.

For LEAP to work correctly, the receiving phone (your phone) must be set with the same SSID, user name, and password as the access point.
