Establishing Wi-Fi Connections

The List of WiFi Networks

Clicking the next to the Globe in the

WiFi main window

opens the

Available Networks

list.

To connect to a network on the list either select the network and then click
the

Connect

button or double-click on the network in the list. The

information displayed for each network will include some (if not all) of the
items shown below. Right-clicking anywhere in the window will produce a
menu that controls which columns are displayed.

Connect
This column provides connection/disconnection buttons for each available
network.

Preferred
A check mark is presented for any WiFi network that is currently listed in
the Network Profiles window. This includes network profiles that have
been pre-defined, WiFi networks for which you have created Network
Profiles and WiFi networks that you have saved using the New Network
Options dialog.

Network
This is the Network Signal Set Identifier (SSID). Essentially this is just a
name that is broadcast by a WiFi access point to identify the network.
If you see a *closed* item in this column, this indicates the presence of one
or more Closed networks. Connecting to such a network requires the
creation of a profile for that network. See How to access a closed network
for more information.
