Set up Wireless LAN

Before you set up a wireless LAN, check to see that your phone supports wireless use. The Cisco IP Phone
8861 and 8865 support a wireless LAN deployment. The Cisco IP Phone 8865NR does not support a wireless
LAN.
Ensure that the Wi-Fi coverage in the location where the wireless LAN is deployed is suitable for transmitting
voice packets.
If you have enabled the Wi-Fi connectivity for voice and you're using EAP-FAST or PEAP security mode,
authenticate the Wi-Fi network with the WLAN Sign in application. WEP, PSK, and open security modes
authenticate on the Wi-Fi network.
A fast-secure roaming method is recommended for Wi-Fi users.
