Securing or Unprotecting Your Wireless Guard
Network
There may be some instances when you would want to
completely unprotect your network connection so it is not
using the Wireless Guard security. For example, if you take
your laptop to another location to give a presentation, and
connect to a network that is running 802.1x security, the
Linksys Wireless Guard software on your laptop will block
you from logging in to another network. You will need to
manually unprotect your network connection so you can
log in. When you come back to your own network, you
won’t have to manually re-secure the network connection.
Linksys Wireless Guard will recognize it and automatically
reinstate security.
To unprotect a network
Right-click the green Wireless Guard Network key icon
on the right-side of the system tray at the bottom of your
screen. Select Unprotect this Network Connection from
the menu.
When the screen asks if you’re sure you want to unprotect
the network, click Yes.
To secure an unprotected network
Right-click the green Wireless Guard Network key icon.
Select Secure this Network Connection from the menu.
When the screen asks if you’re sure you want to secure the
network, click Yes.
NOTE: For more detailed information on your
account and the website, click your computer’s
Start button, select the Linksys Wireless
