Changing the Wireless Security Settings

Using the Wireless Networking Utility from Verizon

Configuring your Wireless G Desktop Card to use Security

At this point, you should already have your wireless router set to use WPA or WEP. In order for you to gain a wireless connection, you will need to set your Wireless G Desktop Card to use the same security settings.

The Wireless G Desktop Card supports the latest WPA security feature as well as the legacy WEP security standard. By default, wireless security is disabled.

To enable security, you will first need to determine which standard is used by the router. (See your wireless router’s manual for directions on how to access the security settings.)

To access the security settings on your Card, click the “My Connections” tab and point to the connection for which you want to change security settings. Click “Edit” to change settings.
