•View the security settings on the access point.

1 Open a Web browser, and then type the IP address of the access point in the address field.

Notes:

–To obtain the IP address of the access point, see the documentation that came with it or contact your system support person.

–If you are using a proxy server, then temporarily disable it to load the Web page correctly.

2Enter the user name and password for the access point when prompted.

Note: The WEP key or WPA passphrase is not the same as the password for the access point. The password allows you to access the access point settings. The WEP key or WPA passphrase allows printers and computers to join your wireless network.

What is an SSID?

A Service Set Identifier (SSID) is the name that identifies a wireless network. All devices on the network must know the SSID of the wireless network or they will not be able to communicate with each other. Usually, the wireless network broadcasts the SSID to allow wireless devices in the area to connect to it. Sometimes, the SSID is not broadcast for security reasons.

If the SSID of your wireless network is not broadcast, it cannot be detected automatically and will not show up in the list of available wireless networks. You must enter the network information manually in this situation.

An SSID can contain up to 32 alphanumeric characters.

Where do I find my SSID?

•View the settings on the access point (wireless router).

Most access points have a built-in Web server that can be accessed using a Web browser.

•Check your computer to see if a program was installed with your wireless network adapter.

Many network adapters provide a software application that allows you to view the wireless settings of your computer, including your SSID.

If you are unable to locate your SSID using either of these methods, then contact your system support person.

What is a network?

A network is a collection of devices such as computers, printers, Ethernet hubs, access points, and routers connected together for communication through cables or through a wireless connection. A network can be wired, wireless, or designed to have both wired and wireless devices.
