Wireless network setup

• Make sure your machine supports wireless networking. Wireless networking may not be available depending on the model (see "Features by models" on page 6).

If the IPv6 network seems to not be working, set all the network settings to the factory defaults and try again using Clear Setting.

Wireless network name and network password

Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is first set up, a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a Network Password are created for the network. Ask your network administrator about this information before proceeding with the machine installation.

Understanding your network type

Typically, you can only have one connection between your computer and the machine at a time.

Infrastructure mode

This is an environment generally used for homes and SOHOs (Small Office/ Home Office). This mode uses an access point to communicate with the wireless machine.

Ad hoc mode

This mode does not use an access point. The wireless computer and wireless machine communicate directly.
