Current network security codes are unavailable

If you are prompted for a network key or a name (SSID) when connecting to a WLAN, the network is
protected by security. You must have the current codes to make a connection on a secure network.
The SSID and network key are alphanumeric codes that you enter into your computer to identify your
computer to the network.
●
For a network connected to your personal wireless router, review the router user guide for
instructions on setting up the same codes on both the router and the WLAN device.
●
For a private network, such as a network in an office or at a public Internet chat room, contact
the network administrator to obtain the codes, and then enter the codes when prompted to do
so.
Some networks change the SSID or network keys used in their routers or access points on a
regular basis to improve security. You must change the corresponding code in your computer
accordingly.
