Hi Gordon, I've just found the following information from the user manual which may be of help.
While I don't have the device in question, I hope what follows will be of some assistance. Regards, Roger. Creating a new Wireless Configuration. When you have a wireless connection available to you on a regular basis, you should set up a dedicated configuration for it. It may be, for example, on your college campus or in your workplace. All wireless networks have an SSID (Service Set Identifier). The SSID is just the name given to the network. For added security, networks not intended for access by the general public may hide their SSID, so it cannot be displayed when you scan for visible networks. In this case, the network administrator needs to tell you what the SSID for the network is, and any other applicable settings such as WEP. To create a connection configuration for a wireless connection, go to the Wireless Network option of the connectivity Menu. 1. Go to the Options Menu by pressing SPACE with O, select Connectivity by pressing C, then Wireless Ethernet, by pressing W. 2. KeySoft prompts, "Wireless internet on? Currently Yes." Press Y for Yes. 3. You are at the Wireless Ethernet Menu. Select "Configure a New Wireless Connection" and press ENTER. KeySoft presents you with the Entry List for Connection configuration. You can move down the list by pressing SPACE. 4. The first item is Name. Enter any name you like, something that is meaningful to you, and press ENTER. 5. KeySoft prompts, "SSID?" This is the name of the network as determined by the network administrator. Type in the SSID and press ENTER. 6. Next is "Use Infrastructure Mode?" which requires a Y or N value. The values you need to assign will be given to you by the network administrator. 7. Next is "Security Protocol". Select the security protocol you want to use (WEP, WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK). If you want to use WPA Enterprise or WPA2 Enterprise, select WPA or WPA2. You can also select Open if you don't want any security at all, however, this option is not recommended. 8. Next is "WEP key" entry field. Enter the WEP key and press ENTER. Note that the WEP key will be in hexadecimal format and either 10 characters long, for a 64 bit encryption or 26 characters long for a 128 bit encryption. If instead of WEP, you select WPA PSK, you will need to fill out information on your Pre shared key (PSK). 9. Next, for Enterprise configurations, is 802.1x Authentication. This will be either 0 for no authentication, 1 for TLS, or 2 for PEAP, or 3 for MD5 Challenge or 4 for MsCHAPv2. Type in the appropriate value and press ENTER. If you don't know what this is, you probably don't need it. 10. The rest of the fields are standard network settings and again, the values will come from the network administrator. The fields are: "Obtain an IP Address Automatically?", "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Def ault Gateway", "Primary DNS", "Secondary DNS", "Primary WINS", and "Secondary WINS." Any fields that don't need changing, just pass over them by pressing SPACE. 11. KeySoft prompts, "Use a proxy server for this connection?" If N for No, you will go to the end of the list. If Y for Yes, you will need to fill in two more fields "proxy server name" and "proxy server port." 12. To save and close the record, press SPACE with E. KeySoft prompts, "Add this Record?" Press Y for Yes or N for No. ======================================= The Techno-Chat E-Mail forum is guaranteed malware, spyware, Trojan, virus and worm-free To modify your subscription options, please visit for forum's dedicated web pages located at http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/mailman/listinfo/techno-chat You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Techno-Chat group at either of the following websites: http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/techno-chat/index.html Or: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]> you may also subscribe to this list via RSS.
