Securing or Unprotecting Your Wireless Guard Network
There may be some instances when you would want to completely unprotect your network connection so it is not
using the Wireless Guard security. For example, if you take your laptop to another location to give a presentation,
and connect to a network that is running 802.1x security, the Linksys Wireless Guard software on your laptop will
block you from logging in to another network. You will need to manually unprotect your network connection so
you can log in. When you come back to your own network, you won't have to manually re-secure the network
connection. Linksys Wireless Guard will recognize it and automatically reinstate security.
To unprotect a network
Right-click the green Wireless Guard Network key icon on the right-side of the system tray at the bottom of your
screen. Select Unprotect this Network Connection from the menu.
When the screen asks if you're sure you want to unprotect the network, click Yes.
To secure an unprotected network
Right-click the green Wireless Guard Network key icon. Select Secure this Network Connection from the menu.
When the screen asks if you're sure you want to secure the network, click Yes.
For more detailed information on your account and the website, click your computer's
