The next screen is the Available Wireless Networks screen.

Available Wireless Networks

This screen provides two options for setting up the

Adapter.

SecureEasySetup

This Adapter features SecureEasySetup.

This means that you can set it up with just the press of

a button when connecting to wireless routers or access

points that also feature SecureEasySetup. Both points

on the network must feature SecureEasySetup for this to

work.

Available Wireless Networks

(For most users.) Use this

option if you already have a network set up. The networks

available to this Adapter are listed on this screen. You

can choose one of these networks and click Connect

to connect to it. Click Refresh to update the Available

Wireless Networks list.

Manual Setup

If your network is not listed on this screen,

select Manual Setup to set up the adapter manually.

This method of setting up the Adapter is intended for

Advanced Users only.
The setup for each option is described, step by step, under

the appropriate heading on the following pages.
Click Exit to close the Setup Wizard and set up the Adapter

later.

SecureEasySetup

While using the Monitor, you might see the

SecureEasySetup button on the right-hand side of the

screen. This button can be used to set up the Adapter, if

this has not already been done. With SecureEasySetup,

setting up the Adapter is as simple as pushing a couple

of buttons. Before you press any buttons, though, you

should locate the SecureEasySetup button on the device

you’re connecting the Adapter to, such as a wireless router

or access point.
