2.3 Connecting to an AP Without Using WPS
There are three ways to connect the wireless client (the NWD2105) to a network without using
WPS.
Configure nothing and leave the wireless client to automatically scan for and connect to any
available network that has no wireless security configured.
Manually connect to a network (see Section 2.3.1 on page 26).
Configure a profile to have the wireless client automatically connect to a specific network or peer
computer (see Section 2.3.2 on page 28).
2.3.1 Manually Connecting to a Wireless LAN
This example illustrates how to manually connect your wireless client to an access point (AP)
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 AP’s SSID is “SSID_Example3” and its pre-shared key is “ThisismyWPA-PSKpre-
sharedkey”.
After you install the ZyXEL utility and then insert the wireless client, follow the steps below to
connect to a network using the Site Survey screen.
1 Open the ZyXEL utility and click the Site Survey tab to open the screen shown next.
Figure 9 ZyXEL Utility: Site Survey
2 The wireless client automatically searches for available wireless networks. Click Scan if you want to
search again. If no entry displays in the Available Network List, that means there is no wireless
network available within range. Make sure the AP or peer computer is turned on, or move the
wireless client closer to the AP or peer computer. See Table 4.4 on page 47 for detailed field
descriptions.
3 To connect to an AP or peer computer, either click an entry in the list and then click Connect or
double-click an entry (SSID_Example3 in this example).
