Connecting To A Wireless Network; Checking For Software Updates - K-Byte Zipit Getting Started Manual And Users Manual

CONNECTING TO A WIRELESS NETWORK

Automated Connection
Although wireless networks can be configured in a variety of ways, Zipit
Wireless Messenger is designed to make the Wireless connection process
as automated and simple as possible.
When the device is turned on, Zipit Wireless Messenger will search for all
available wireless networks and attempt to connect to the strongest
unencrypted networks first, followed by the strongest encrypted networks.
If your network is unencrypted, it is likely that the connection will not require
any input. Otherwise, follow the on screen instructions to connect to your
network. If you prefer to manually select or configure a network, press NEXT
while the device is searching for networks.
If your network is encrypted, you will be asked to enter a password (WEP
Key). If your network is hidden, you will have to identify your network.

Checking for Software Updates

Each time the Zipit Wireless Messenger connects to the Internet, it will
determine if a new software update is available. If a software update is
available, the Zipit Wireless Messenger will automatically install it and then
re-start.
WARNING: If your device is connected to an AC Power Outlet while
downloading a new software load, do not unplug your device from the AC
Power Outlet until the download and installation is complete.
