the Wireless LAN, you will need to obtain some information from your

are using this option • Network Type such as 802.11b Ad-Hoc

If you plan to use WEP, be sure to
get: • Key Length: 40 or 128
bits • Authentication Type: Open System or Shared
Key • Key Setting: Key1, Key2, Key3, and/or Key4
Be
sure to set up the Network also. The Wireless LAN requires Network
