9. WPA and WPA2 are similar, although WPA2 offers a higher level of security. Whichever
you selected in step 7, you then have to specify the variant used. They are TKIP (Temporal
Key Integrity Protocol) and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). As previously, the setting
should match that used by your router. Some routers allow both to be specified, and the
router will use whichever variant is supported by the connected device. AES is regarded as
the more secure option if it is available.
10. T he radio will then require you to enter the encryption key. This must be a string of between
8 and 63 characters and must be identical to the key which has been entered into your
router. Note – the encryption key is sensitive to the use of upper and lower case letters and
symbols. Take care to enter the key exactly, or the radio will not be able to connect to your
router. The three controls on the right-hand side of the screen have special functions. You
can access these by rotating the Tuning Control Rotary and then press the Tuning Control
Rotary to select as you needed:
select '
' to erase a character just entered (long press to clear ); Info again to continue
select '
' when the complete encryption key has been entered
select '
' to cancel and go back to the TKIP / AES options screen
Once the key is entered the radio should connect to the network.
11. W hile the radio is trying to connect to the network, it will display 'Processing...' when
checking the encryption key and then 'Connecting...'. If the connection is made successfully,
the radio will return to the Network settings menu. If the unit cannot connect, then it will
display a 'Failed to connect' message and will return to the SSID entry screen (step 6). Once
connected, the network settings are stored in the radio. The settings are retained when
the radio is disconnected from the mains. You may now use the Back and Mode buttons to
access the functions of your radio.
