In the Protected Setup page:
1. Select Wireless Settings.
2. Locate the Wireless Security section (FIG. 21).
3. Press the Static WEP button to open the Static WEP Settings dialog (FIG. 22).
4. Press the SSID field and from the Network Name (SSID) keyboard, enter the SSID name you are
using on your target Wireless Access Point (case sensitive), and press Done when finished.
The card should be given the SSID used by the target WAP. If this field is left blank, the unit
will attempt to connect to the first available WAP. By default, all WAP200Gs use AMX as
their assigned SSID value.
One of the most common problems associated with connection to a WAP arise because the
SSID was not entered properly. You must maintain the same case when entering this
information. ABC is not the same as Abc.
The alpha-numeric string is by default AMX but can later be changed to any 32-character
entry. This string must be duplicated within the Network Name (SSID) field on the WAP.

You must first take down the SSID name, Current Key string value, and panel MAC
Address information so you can later enter it into the appropriate WAP dialog fields in
order to "sync-up" the secure connection. These values must be identically
reproduced on the target WAP.
