Manual network configuration - cont.
5. In most installations the DNS settings (DNS = Domain Name System) will be set to the same IP
address as your router (192.168.1.1 in the example shown). In this case the secondary DNS
may be left at zero.
Text entry is described in previous section 'Text entry screens'. Touch the tick symbol to confirm.
If you previously specified 'Wired' and then 'DHCP No', your radio should now connect to the
router using the Ethernet cable (in which case skip to step 11).
6. If you specified 'Wireless', the next step is to set up the WiFi connection, starting with the name
of the wireless network (SSID) followed by the encryption options and password.
To enter the SSID see text entry on page 11. Do this as needed until the complete network name
has been entered. The SSID setting is sensitive to upper and lower case characters and symbols.
You must enter it exactly as set up in your router.
7. Having entered the SSID, you must enter details of the encryption system used on your wireless
network. This should be the same as specified in your router settings. If your network does not
use encryption, then select the 'Open' option. Your radio should then connect to the network, so
skip to step 11. If your network uses WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) select 'Pre-Shared' option
then go to step 8. The remaining options are for WPA or WPA2 (WiFi Protected Access) - see
step 9.
8. If you chose 'Pre-Shared' in step 7, you should then choose the WEP option. The key should be
entered using only the numbers 0-9 and the letters A-F. The key will be 10 characters long for
64-bit encryption and 26 characters long for 128-bit encryption. Spaces or special symbols are
not permitted in WEP keys. Use the '123' then 'hex' buttons to access a keyboard for WEP key
entry. Once the key is entered the radio should connect to your network. Please skip to step 11.
