3. Touch Wireless Setup Wizard.
This runs the Wireless Setup Wizard. The setup wizard searches for available
networks, and then displays a list of detected network names (SSIDs). The
infrastructure networks appear first in the list, followed by available ad hoc networks.
The networks with the strongest signal appear first, the weakest appear last.
4. On the display, look for the network name you created on your computer (for example,
Mynetwork).
5. Touch the network name.
If you found your network name and selected it, go on to step 6.
If you do not see your network name in the list
a. Touch Enter a New Network Name (SSID).
The visual keyboard appears.
b. Enter the SSID. Touch the appropriate letters or numbers on the visual keyboard.
NOTE: You must enter the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small)
letters. Otherwise, the wireless connection will fail.
c. When you have finished entering the new SSID, touch Done on the visual
keyboard, and then touch OK.
TIP: If the HP All-in-One is unable to discover the network based on the
network name you entered, you will see the following prompts. You may want
to move the HP All-in-One closer to the computer and try running the Wireless
Setup Wizard again to automatically discover the network.
d. Touch Ad Hoc.
e. Touch Yes, my network uses WEP encryption. The visual keyboard displays.
If you do not want to use WEP encryption, touch No, my network does not use
encryption. Go to step 7.
6. If prompted, enter your WEP key as follows. Otherwise go to step 7.
a. Touch the appropriate letters or numbers on the visual keyboard.
NOTE: You must enter the exact uppercase (capital) and lowercase (small)
letters. Otherwise, the wireless connection will fail.
b. When you are finished entering the WEP key, touch Done on the visual keyboard.
7. Touch OK again to confirm.
The HP All-in-One will attempt to connect to the SSID. If a message says you entered
an invalid WEP key, check the key you wrote down for your new network, follow the
prompts to correct the WEP key, and then try again.
8. When the HP All-in-One connects successfully to the network, go to your computer
to install the software.
