router or ask the person, who installed your network. confirm your
selection with

In the next step you have to enter your WlAn encryption key. You can
find it in the setup menu of you network router or ask the person, who
installed your network. You can enter characters either by pushing
the
keys repeatedly, until the desired character is shown in the
lowest line. or, as a more a more convenient and faster option, you
can employ the alphanumeric keys of the remote control. The use of
the alphanumeric keys is very similar to the respective keys of a mobile
phone, e.g. to write a SmS. All letters are printed on the remote control
above the numeric keys. You have to push the particular key several
times, until the desired character is displayed. First you will see the
lower case characters, then the respective cipher and finally the upper case characters. E.g. with the key 3 the
characters d, e, f, 3, D, E, F will be displayed successively. If you push the key again, this sequence will start
anew. Special characters you can obtain with the Keys 1 and 0.
To enter the next character, either wait one second, until the cursor jumps right automatically, or press the
key. If you have entered a wrong character, you can delete it by pressing the key
twice. For that you have
to move the cursor to the right side of the wrong character with the
keys.

OK
