SAGEM F@st™ 1400 / 1400W
CONFIGURING THE WIRELESS NETWORK
The wireless network is only available on the SAGEM F@st™ 1400W.
The Wi-Fi technology protects the data flowing on your wireless network.
This protection is provided by two configurable parameters:
• the SSID identifier
• the WEP encryption key
1
Definitions
The SSID is your wireless network's identifier.
For your wireless network to be able to operate, you must key in the same SSID on your
modem/router and on all the computers making up your wireless network.
The WEP - Wired Equivalent Privacy - key serves to encrypt the information exchanged
over your wireless network.
Like the SSID, this WEP key must be configured identically on each computer making up
your wireless network as well as on your modem/router.
The WEP key format is defined by the IEEE 802.11b standard.
