If you select No, the following settings are shown:

Network name (SSID)—Enter the name of the WLAN network. If you are the administrator of the network, ensure that the name of the network is unique. When you connect to the internet over WLAN, the connection is based on this information. If the field is dimmed and cannot be edited, the scanned SSID contains characters entered in an unknown character set, and not standard character sets (UTF-8) as the device expects.

Network is hidden—You must select this option if the name of your WLAN is hidden. When this option is selected, your device actively searches for the hidden WLAN when you establish an internet connection.

Network mode—Select the Infrastructure or Ad hoc mode. The infrastructure mode is used with the internet connections.

Security method—Select None (no security), WEP (medium security), WPA pre-shared key (high security), or WPA with EAP (high security).
