connections from the phone.
Before setting up the wireless network, you must know the wireless security type for your router.
The phone works with the following security types:
• Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)—With this type of security, you must enter a 64– or 128–bit key
on the phone (or a more easily remembered pass phrase to generate the key). The phone then
authenticates with your router to provide a secure connection.
• Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)—The phone supports WPA PSK, WPA2 PSK, WPA Enterprise,
and WPA2 Enterprise. With this type of security, you will at the minimum be required to enter a
password on the phone. The phone then authenticates with your router to provide a secure
connection.
If you do not know your wireless router security type, log in to the router interface to get this
information.

STEP 1 Log in to the phone web user interface.
STEP 2 Click the Wi-Fi tab.
