Using your VAIO computer
Communicating with an Access Point (infrastructure)
An infrastructure network is a network that extends an existing wired local network to wireless devices by
providing an Access Point, for example the Sony PCWA-A320 Access Point. The Access Point bridges the
wireless and wired LAN and acts as a central controller for the Wireless LAN. The Access Point coordinates
transmission and reception from multiple wireless devices within a specific range.
To communicate with an Access Point (infrastructure), proceed as follows:
1 Turn on the Wireless switch on the front side of the computer.
2 Right-click the network icon
3 Click View Available Wireless Networks.
The Connect to Wireless Network dialog box appears.
4 Select the network you want to use.
5 Type the Network Key.
If you are using the Sony Access Point PCWA-A320, by default, the network key has the same name as
the network ID, but without the first digit.
