Cisco SPA525G and Cisco SPA525G2 SIP IP Phone User Guide
The Cisco SPA525G and Cisco SPA525G2 phone supports a direct connection to
the wireless network. You can configure your Wi-Fi connection from the phone
web user interface. See
page 27 for more information on configuring wireless 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.
