4.2.3.2 Creating and Using a Profile
A profile lets you easily connect to the same wireless network again later. You can
also configure different profiles for different networks, for example if you connect
a notebook computer to wireless networks at home and at work.
This example illustrates how to set up a profile and connect the wireless client to
an AP configured for WPA-PSK security. In this example, the SSID is
"SSID_Example3", the profile name is "PN_Example3" and the pre-shared key is
"ThisismyWPA-PSKpre-sharedkey". You have chosen the profile name
"PN_Example3".
Open the ZyXEL utility and click the Profile tab to open the screen shown next.
