Connecting to a wireless network

1. When the display says 'Scan for networks', press the Select control.

The radio will now scan for all available wireless networks and will

show 'Scanning'.

2. If the radio cannot find a network then the display will say 'No Wireless

Networks Found'. If this happens then you will have to get your wireless

access point working - please see the instructions supplied with it.

3. When the radio finds your wireless network, it displays the Network

Name (ESSID) for the access point on the screen. This is a name that

is allocated to the access point by the person who set up the network

- for example: 'My Home Network'.

4. It is possible, and in some locations highly likely, that your radio will

find more than one wireless access point, in which case you should

choose which one you need to connect to.

5. Rotate the Select control to see the ESSID for each access point that

the radio has found. If your network is shown proceed to step 7 on the

next page.

6. If your network is not found, it is possible that it is configured such that

the ESSID is not broadcast (sometimes referred to as hidden). If this

is the case then use the Back option and then select 'Enter network

name'. This procedure is described in the 'Network Configuration Menu',

see page 52, 'Entering the network name manually'. If you know that

your network name is not hidden, and it was not found,then either try

re-scanning, or refer to 'Troubleshooting' on page 53.


If you make a mistake at any point, use the Back option to go back to

the previous screen.)
