Configuring a setting to operate this machine as a wireless LAN adapter

Configure a setting to operate this machine as a wireless LAN adapter and connect to your access point.

1. In the administrator mode, select [Network] - [Extended Network Settings] - [Wireless LAN Adapter], then specify the setting method.

   Settings	Description
   [Direct Input]	Select this option to directly enter all the setting items such as SSID and the encryption scheme that are required for a connection.
   [WPS]	Select this option to automatically obtain information required for a connection from the access point. The access point must support the WPS function.
   [AP Search]	Select this option to search for a connectable access point and configure a setting required for a connection.

2. Configure the following settings depending on the setting method you selected in Step 1.

   • When [Direct Input] is selected:

   Settings	Description
   [SSID]	Enter the SSID of the access point to be connected to this machine (using up to 32 bytes).
   [Authentication/Encryption Algorithm]	Select the algorithm to be used for authentication or encryption. [No Authentication/Encryption] is specified by default.
   [WEP key]	Specify [Key Input Method] and [WEP key] when [WEP] is selected in [Authentication/Encryption Algorithm]. To specify multiple WEP keys, select the required WEP keys in [Key Selection].
   [Passphrase Input Method]	Select the passphrase entry method when an algorithm other than [WEP] is selected in [Authentication/Encryption Algorithm].
   [Passphrase]	Enter the passphrase when an algorithm other than [WEP] is selected in [Authentication/Encryption Algorithm].
   [20 to 40 MHz Auto Switch]	Select [ON] to try a high-speed communication using 40MHz. [OFF] is specified by default.

   • When [WPS] is selected:

   Settings	Description
   [Push Button Method]	To try a connection with an access point, select [Push Button Method], then click [OK]. If you press the WPS setting button at the access point, settings such as SSID and security required for a connection are configured automatically.
   [PIN Method]	To display the PIN code, select [PIN Method], then click [OK]. If you enter the displayed PIN code at the access point, settings such as SSID and security required for a connection are configured automatically. This function requires a computer that contains Windows 7 or later as the operating system.

   • When [AP Search] is selected:

   Settings	Description
   [AP Search]	Click this to automatically search for an access point around this machine. Select an access point to be connected to this machine from the displayed list.
   [SSID]	Select this option to display the SSID of the selected access point.
   [Authentication/Encryption Algorithm]	Click this to display the authentication/encryption algorithm of the selected access point.
