Wi-Fi
Before starting
Information required
Identifying the name
of the Wi-Fi network
The technical name used to describe the name of the network is the SSID
(Service Set Identifier). This is generally found underneath your router. If you
have already changed the name of your Wi-Fi network, use this new name.
Reading off the
security key
If you have a secure network, read off the WEP, WPA or WPA2 key
required to set up a connection.
You will find the WEP, WPA or WPA2 key underneath your modem /
router or in the documentation provided with the system. If you have
already changed the name of your wireless network, use the new key.
WARNING:
-Network keys are case-dependent.
-If you have a WEP network, enter the WEP key without spaces.
-If your have a WPA or WPA2 network enter the key exactly as it
appears, including spaces if necessary.
Identifying the connection type
The type of connection you need to set up with the frame depends on the model of your modem or
router: you have to determine whether your modem supports SES or WPS technologies.
WPS (Wi-Fi Protected Setup) and SES (Secure Easy Setup) technologies enable secure
connections to be set up automatically between several Wi-Fi peripherals, most often by simply
pressing a button
Refer to the documentation supplied with your modem to find out whether it supports SES or
WPS technologies. If you do not have this documentation:
-your modem/router cannot support these technologies if you bought it before
2007;
-WPS modems or routers have a WPS button.

WARNING: Be careful not to confuse the WPS button with an association button (e.g.
Livebox).
Examples of WPS routers
► If your modem / router supports SES or WPS technology, see Setting up a connection with SES /
WPS.
► If your modem / router does not support SES or WPS technology, see Setting up a connection
without SES / WPS.
