to connect to a locked network.

About Wi-Fi and Wireless Networking
Wi-Fi (also known as 802.11) provides a way to connect wirelessly to the
Internet. You may already use a wireless network at your home or office to
browse the web via a PC. The Stiletto 100 supports the most common type of
wireless network, 802.11b. Networks which use 802.11a or 802.11g are not
supported.
Open vs. Password Protected Networks
Open networks require no password and are often available at public locations.
Password protected networks require you to enter a password in the Stiletto
100 in order to connect. The Stiletto 100 supports two types of password
protection, WEP and WPA. Ask the person in charge of your network to find
out the password. Networks which require you to access a web page to enter a
password or credit card information are not currently supported.
Usage at “Wireless Hotspots”
Wireless hotspots are increasingly available at coffee shops, airports, and other
public locations. The Stiletto 100 does not currently support paid networks
which charge an access fee or require a monthly subscription.
Setting Up a Wi-Fi Network
To set up a wireless network, you need a broadband connection to the Internet
(check with your local cable or phone company), and a router which can be
purchased inexpensively from major electronics stores. A router typically
provides a range of 50 to 100 feet, depending on how the walls of your home
are built.
