Click Refresh to see the current status of your

wireless connection. SSID (Network Name) will be

populated now (see pages 13-14 if it isn't).
Below it, Wireless Network Type may be set to

Infrastructure if you're connecting the Wireless

Ethernet Converter to a router or access point, or Ad

hoc if you're connecting it to another wireless client.
Encryption Mode should be set to use the same type

of encryption as the other wireless devices on your

network. The Ethernet Converter supports WEP128,

WEP64, TKIP, and AES encryption. AES is highly

recommended if all your other wireless devices

support it.
To the right of the encryption dropbox is the field where you enter your encryption key.
SSID, Encryption Mode, and Encryption Key must be set exactly the same in all of your

wireless devices, or they will not be able to communicate with each other.
Check your router/access point's documentation if you don't know what the SSID,

Encryption Mode, and Encryption key are on your network.
