Automatically Connecting To A Network - HP iPAQ hx2000 Additional Information

Automatically Connecting to a Network

1. If Wi-Fi is on and one or more broadcast networks are present, the
Network Indicator icon appears in the Navigation bar. Tap
the network you want to connect to, then select whether the
network connects to the Internet (does not use proxy settings) or
Work (uses proxy settings).
2. If you are prompted for a Network Key (WEP), enter it and tap
Connect. If you are not sure, contact your network administrator.
CAUTION: A new network that does not request an encryption key may
not be a secure network. To check whether an existing network uses
encryption, check the Encryption Status of the network. Tap Start >
iPAQ Wireless > Wi-Fi icon > Settings button.
If you cannot connect to a network, be sure that:
• Wi-Fi is turned on.

SDIO Ethernet card

configured and operational.
• the HP iPAQ is within range of the access point.
Tap Start > Settings > Connections tab > Connections and check
your connection settings. Tap OK when you are finished to save your
