3.2 Wireless connection
3.2.1 Preliminary
Before you can access wireless network, wireless parameters should be set
correctly. You have to setup the first wireless parameter set through LAN

access point to route network messages with the same SSID.
Wireless access can be secured by WEP (64/128), WPA-PSA (TKIP/AES), and
WPA2-PSK (AES).
In infrastructure mode, if network administrator wants to change any security
