Section 5 - Wireless Security
Using the D-Link Wireless Connection Manager
It is recommended to enable WPA/WPA2-Personal on your wireless router or access point before configuring your wireless adapter. If you are joining
an existing network, you will need to know the WPA/WPA2-Personal passphrase being used.
1. Open the Wireless Connection Manager by double-clicking on the D-Link icon on
your desktop.
2. Highlight the wireless network (SSID) you would like to connect to and click Connect.
If the network is using WPA/WPA2-Personal, the screen (as shown to the bottom-right)
will appear.
3. Enter the WPA/WPA2-Personal passphrase exactly as it is on your wireless router or
access point. Click the Show text in the password field box to see the passphrase.
Unchecking it will hide it.
4. Click OK to connect to the network. Allow up to 30 seconds to connect.
If you would like to create a new network and enter the WPA/WPA2-Personal settings, refer
to the next page.
