access point/router that uses Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP)

• Internet access (preferably Broadband access such as cable or DSL)

• Your network name (SSID). You can obtain your SSID from the wireless router or

the access point using the router’s embedded web server. See the
manufacturer’s documentation provided with your wireless system for more
information.

• Your WEP key or WPA passphrase. You can obtain your WEP Key or WPA

passphrase from the wireless router or the access point using the router’s
embedded web server
