2. The phone automatically discovers this open AP via the 802.11 scanning process.
3. The user selects this AP from the ‘Nearby Networks’ menu on the telephone.
4. The phone associates with this AP, then proceeds to download all its
configuration information via DHCP and the 46xxsettings.txt file.
Note
This may involve transfer “in the clear” of the phone’s WiFi encryption key, since
46xxsettings.txt file data is not encrypted when it is sent over the network.
5. Once the phone is restarted, it is able to access secure APs using the configuration
information acquired via DHCP and the 46xxsettings.txt file.

AP. This data may be entered manually through the telephone keypad or
downloaded in a 46xxsettings.txt file over a USB connection. See the next
section, “Minimal Configuration Data,” for more information.
2. The phone downloads its remaining configuration information over-the-air via
DHCP and the 46xxsettings.txt file.
