any available network that has no wireless security configured.

• Configure a profile to have the wireless client automatically connect to a specific network
or peer computer (see

2.1 Connecting to a Wireless LAN
This example illustrates how to manually connect your wireless client to an access point (AP)
which is configured for WPA-PSK security and connected to the Internet. Before you connect
to the access point, you must know its Service Set IDentity (SSID) and WPA-PSK pre-shared
key. In this example, the SSID is “SSID_Example3” and the pre-shared key is
“ThisismyWPA-PSKpre-sharedkey” in the AP.
After you install the ZyXEL utility and then insert the wireless client, follow the steps below
