9700 Mobile Computer (WEH)
4.1. USE WI-FI
The mobile computer is capable of Wi-Fi, a wireless networking technology making use of an
access point, also known as "hotspot", to connect to a wireless local area network.
To use Wi-Fi, the mobile computer has to connect to a hotspot. Some hotspots are open for
connection while others request a key to authenticate access. If this is the case, the
authentication key must be included in the mobile computer's Wi-Fi settings.
For authentications based on secure certificates, see Certificates.
Wi-Fi settings and power are controlled via Summit Client Utility (SCU). When Wi-Fi is not
in use, turn it off to extend battery life. See
Summit Client Utility functions by the use of Wi-Fi profiles. Profiles are a set of radio and
security settings that are stored in the registry. You may create, rename, edit and delete
profiles, as well as alter global settings that apply to every profile or to Summit Client Utility
(SCU) itself. For more details on profile settings, please visit the following websites:
