Wireless Network Configuration
Introduction
Wireless local area networks (WLANs) allow XT1 mini-tablets to send and receive information
wirelessly within the range of the connected wireless network. Wireless network connectivity may or
may not include access to the Internet, depending on the network’s mission and configuration.
A given physical area may have multiple wireless local area networks (WLANs), sometimes referred to
as Wi-Fi hot spots, which the XT1 can
see
as it scans for available networks.
Typically, wireless local area networks are configured with a security scheme. Wireless devices
connected to a wireless network must:
A.
Be configured for compatibility with the host wireless network’s security requirements.
B.
Be granted access to the host wireless network through the use of a security code
(password) established by host wireless network’s administrator to protect the network
from unauthorized use.
Note:
Some wireless networks, especially those in public areas, are
unsecured
, i.e.
they do not require a password in order to establish a network connection.
