Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional)

A wireless network (Wireless LAN) environment is a network envi ronment that enable s communication be tween multiple computers using wireless LAN devices.

Using the wireless network connections between computer systems, you can use no rmal net w ork functions such as sharing of files, folders and printers.

A wireless LAN card is optional. The model of the wireless LAN card is determined by the relevant product. To view the installed wireless LAN card, click Start > Control Panel > Performance and Maintenance > System > Hardware tab > Device Manager. The wireless LAN connection settings are described on the basis of a W indo ws XP S ervic e Pack 2 installed computer. It is recommended using the default settings provided by Windows XP as the wireless LAN settings for Windows XP installed computers. To setup the wireless card using the software supplied by the wirele ss LAN card man ufa ctur er, refer to "Setting up a Wireless Network Setup Using the Wireless LAN Setup Program" (p50). To use the Wireless LAN, the Wireless LAN must be turned on. Press the Menu button and press the Wireless LAN ON item to turn it on. If the Wireless LAN is turned on, the Wireless LAN LED ( ) is lit up.

Wireless Network Connection Types

Wireless network connections can be classified into two categories.

1) Access Point (AP)

You can connect to an AP to use the network. Th is is only possi ble in an enviro nment equipped wit h an AP. For details, see “Connecting to an Access Point (AP)” on page 46.

What is an Access Point (AP)?

An AP is a network device that bridges wired and wireless LANs, and act a s a wireless hub. You can connect multiple wireless LAN installed computers to an AP.

2) Computer-to-computer (ad hoc)

This is also called a peer-to-peer network. In computer-to-computer wireless networks, you can wirelessly connect 2 or more computers that

have wireless LAN modules. For details, see “Connecting to computer-to-computer networks (peerto-peer or ad hoc)” on page 47.

Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional) 45

Connecting to an Access Point (AP)

This section describes how t o connect to an AP. You can access t he network when you are co nnected to an AP.

For more detailed information, about your network, such as the network key (encryption key), ask your network administrator.

To connect to an AP, follow these steps:

1 Right-click(press and hold the S tylus Pen for more than 3 seconds) on the Wireless Network

Connections ( ) icon on the taskbar, and select View Available Wireless Networks.

2 Select an AP (E.g. see the Test network diagram below) to connect to and click Connect.

If there is a configured network key for the AP, the Enter Network Key window appears. Enter the Network Key and click the Connect button.

When on network key is defined for a selected AP, click on Link t o display the warning mess age box. Then click on Connect again in the box.

Now when Connected is displayed in the right corner of the AP information window, y ou can access the network.

Checking the connection status

Move the mouse pointer over the Wireless N etwork Connection ( ) icon on the taskbar to display the connection status.

Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional) 46

Connecting to computer-to-computer networks

In computer-to-computer wireless networks, you can connect two or more computers that have wireless LAN modules. Using this method, a computer that is not connected to the Internet can access the Internet through another computer connected to the Internet.

You can connect by completing the following steps:

(peer-to-peer or ad hoc)

• Step 1. Set up a computer-to-computer network on a computer.

• Step 2. Connect to the configured computer from other computers.

Step 1. Setting up a computer-to-computer network

1 Right-click(press and hold the S tylus Pen for more than 3 seconds) on the Wireless Network

Connection ( ) icon on the taskbar, and select View Available Wireless Networks.

2 Click Change the order of Preferred Networks.

3 In the Wireless Network tab, click Advanced. 4 Make sure the 'Automatically connect to non-default network' checkbox is not, s elected. Sel ect

'Computer-to-computer (ad hoc) networks only', and click Close.

5 In the Wireless Networks tab, click Add.

Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional) 47

6 Enter the network name (e.g. samsung), and unselect 'The key is provided for me automatical-

ly'. Enter the encryption key in the Network key field, and clic k OK.

To prevent a network access from unauth orized user, it is better to confi gure a network key (en cryption key). A network key consists of 5 ~ 13 alphanumeric characters (e.g. magic), or of 10 ~ 26 hexadecimal numbers (a hexadecimal number is represented by the numbers '0' to '9' and the letters 'a' to 'f').

7 Check that the configured network name (e.g. samsung) is in the ’Preferred networks’ item,

and click OK.

Now your wireless network setup has been completed.

Connecting to a Wireless LAN (Optional) 48

Step 2. Connecting to the configured computer

1 Right-click(press and hold the S tylus Pen for more than 3 seconds) on the Wireless Network

Connection ( ) icon on the taskbar, and select View Available Wireless Networks.

2 Select the wireless network name (e.g. samsung) specified in ”Connectin g to computer-to-com-

puter networks (peer-to-peer or ad hoc)” on page 47, and click Connect.

3 Enter a cryptographic key in the network key box and click Connect.

If the network key is not configured in ”Conne cting to computer-to-computer networks (peer-topeer or ad hoc)” on page 47, just click Connect, without any keystrokes.

When connected to the wireless network, the system displays Connected in the selected net work of the Network Connection window.

Checking the connection status

Move the mouse pointer over the Wireless Network Connection ( ) icon on the taskbar, to display the connection status is displayed.

click Activate.

5 Enter a profile name to be used for the connection an d select the secu rity settings of the AP to

be connected to in the Security tab.

The network authentication, encryption type and password of an access point are configured through the access point management program. For the security information, check the security settings of an access point or ask your wireless network administrator.

Refer to the following when configuring a WEP key.

• Data encryption (WEP): The IEEE 802.11 WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) standard

defines two levels of encryption, a 64-bit key (this is sometimes represente d by 40bits) and a 128-bit key. When connecting to an Atheros access point, you can use the 152-bit key (32 hexadecimal digits or 16 ASCII characters).

• Key index: Select the current encryption key index used by the access point from between

1 to 4.

• Using an encryption key: Enter 5 (for 64-bit) or 13 (for 128-bit) alphanumeric characters

(represented by 0-9, a-z, or A-Z).

6 Click OK and then OK again in the Profile Management window.

If the profile is created, the profile appears in the list in the Profile Management tab and the connection is established using the profile.
