3. Tap the Security field and select a security option. This must

match the current security setting on your target WAP

(Wireless Access Point).

4. Enter your WAP’s password if the WAP is secure.

5. Tap Connect to store the new information and connect to the

target WAP.

Note: An SSID is a unique key which identifies a wireless LAN. Its

purpose is to stop other wireless equipment from accessing
your LAN — whether accidentally or intentionally. To
communicate, wireless devices must be configured with the
same SSID.

WPS Push Button

The WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) feature (sometimes associated with
a physical or on-screen button on most WAPs) allows you to pair
your device and WAP without the need for entering a passcode. This
process is similar to Wi-Fi Direct pairing.

In this case, once the WPS feature is active on your WAP, your device
can then detect it and then immediately pair to it.

Note: WPS-capable routers appear in the Wi-Fi list of available

devices with the term (WPS available) below their name.

To pair your device using WPS:

1. Follow the WPS activation instructions specific to your Wireless

Access Point.

2. From the main Settings page, tap Connections tab ➔ Wi-Fi.
