Setting Up Wi-Fi Security; Selecting A Wi-Fi Channel - Raymarine a67 Wi-Fi Installation And Operation Instructions Manual

25.4 Setting up Wi-Fi security

You can encrypt the Wi-Fi connection on the multifunction
display to prevent unauthorized devices from accessing the
connection. The default encryption is WPA2.
With the homescreen displayed:
1. Select Set-up.
2. Select System Settings.
3. Select Wireless Connections.
4. Select Wi-Fi > On.
5. Select Wi-Fi Name and specify the SSID. This should be a
memorable word and must be unique to each multifunction
display in your system.
By default the SSID is the serial number of the multifunction
display.
6. Select Wi-Fi Security and specify the type of encryption you
want to use — None, WPA only, WPA2 only (default), or
WPA/WPA2.
Note:
• Raymarine strongly recommends the use of the WPA2
security setting.
• Selecting None for your Wi-Fi Security will leave your Wi-Fi
open and allow anyone with a Wi-Fi enabled device access
to your system.
7. It is recommended that the default Wi-Fi Passphrase is
NOT changed.
Note: Once Wi-Fi security is set up on the multifunction
display you must specify the same SSID and password
credentials on your iPhone or iPad before wireless video
streaming can be used.
Changing the default passphrase
It is recommended that the default passphrase is not changed,
however if you do need to change the passphrase follow the
steps below:
From the Wireless Connections menu: Set-up > System
Settings > Wireless Connections
1. Select Wi-Fi Passphrase.
The on-screen keyboard will be displayed, showing the
current passphrase.
2. Use DEL to delete the current passphrase.
3. Enter a new passphrase.
Note: Ensure the passphrase you choose is 'strong' by using
a combination of upper/lower case letters, numbers and
special characters. The passphrase can be between 8 and
63 characters in length with longer passphrases being more
secure.
4. Select SAVE to save the new passphrase.
