The product communicates with other devices on the network through a wireless router.

Ad-hoc wireless network

The product communicates directly with other wireless devices without using a wireless router.

All devices on the ad hoc network must have the following: 802.11b/g compatibility The same SSID The same subnet and channel The same 802.11b/g security settings

Wireless security To make your wireless network easy to distinguish from other wireless networks, use a unique network name (SSID) for your wireless router. Your wireless router might have a default network name, which is typically the manufacturer's name. For information on how to change the network name, see the documentation that came with the wireless router.

To prevent other users from accessing your network, turn on WPA or WEP data encryption. Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP): WEP is the original native security mechanism in the 802.11 standard. You create a unique key containing hexadecimal or alphanumeric characters, which other users must provide before they can access your network. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA): WPA uses the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) for encryption and employs 802.1X authentication. It addresses all known weaknesses of WEP. You create a unique passphrase containing a combination of letters and numbers, which other users must provide before they can access your network. WPA2 provides the advanced encryption standard (AES), and is an improvement over WPA.
