õ For wireless operation (Wi-Fi, 802.11b): INTERNET DSL or cable modem Data port Power outlet wireless access point router PC with wireless network adaptor 1 If there is no networking cable plugged into the set at the first setup, you will be asked whether you want to use wired (Ethernet) or wireless (WiFi) operation. Choose Wireless. For any further connection, the set will start up in the operation mode last used. This setting can be changed at any later point in time in the ‘SET OPTIONS’ menu under ‘SELECT NETWORK’. 2 You will be asked to choose between ‘Infrastructure’ or ‘Ad-hoc’ operation mode. If you want to use a wireless access point (Infrastructure mode - recommended), select accordingly. If you select “NO”, MC-i250 will try to establish a direct connection to a wireless network adapter (Ad-hoc mode). 3 You will be asked to enter the network name (ESSID). Enter this case-sensitive name, using the remote control. 4 You will be asked to select the network channel number. If you use an access point (infrastructure mode), choose the used channel or type in “0” for automatic detection. This process will take a short while. If you do not use a wireless access point (Ad-hoc mode), use the soft keys to select the used channel. 5 You can choose to use WEP encryption. If you choose ‘YES’, you will be asked to enter up to four encryption keys. The first key will be used as the outgoing key. The outgoing key can be defined at any later point in time in the ‘SET OPTIONS’ menu under ‘ENCRYPT CONFIG’.
