1.2 A If you already have a wireless computer network

• Check your existing wireless network settings so you are able to enter them in steps 9 and 11 of chapter 2.2 ‘Installing - General procedure’ (page 10).

Find out the wireless network name (SSID) and the encryption key(s) you used for securing your wireless network.

Wireless Network Name (SSID):

Usually, you can find the wireless network name in the options menu of your Wireless Network Adapter or Wireless Base Station.To check this, open the program that came with your network adapter.

Encryption key:

The wireless encryption key is a 64 or 128 bit WEP code that secures your wireless network communications.

–64-bit: 5 characters ASCII, or 10 characters HEX, or

–128 bit: 13 characters ASCII, or 26 characters HEX.

Note:The encryption key is case sensitive, meaning that ‘ABC’ is not the same as ‘aBc’. Always input characters in the correct case to avoid problems.

Please write down your encryption key(s) and SSID.You will need them when you install your SL50i.

1.2 B If you do not have a wireless computer network

•Install a Wireless Network Adapter (not included, you will have to buy one separately. E.g. the Philips CPWUA054.)

See the separate instructions of the Wireless Network Adapter on how to install the adapter on your PC.

Notes:

–Choose ‘Ad-Hoc’ as your network type during installation, and set ‘philips’ as your wireless network name (SSID).

–Philips advises you to set an encryption key to secure your wireless network. Please read the text on ‘Securing your wireless network’ on page 34 of the extended version of the User Manual on the CD-ROM.
