Note Before connecting to a wireless infrastructure network, ensure that the
ethernet cable is not connected to the HP All-in-One.
To connect the HP All-in-One with the Wireless Setup Wizard
1. Write down the following information about your access point:
Network Name (also called SSID)
WEP Key, WPA Passphrase (if needed)
If you do not know where to find this information, see the documentation that came
with your wireless access point. You might be able to find the SSID and the WEP
key or WPA passphrase on the Embedded Web Server (EWS) for the access point.
For information on how to open the access point EWS, see the access point
documentation.
Note If the network is set up with an Apple AirPort base station and you are
using a password instead of WEP HEX or WEP ASCII to access this network,
you need to get the equivalent WEP key. See the documentation that came
with the Apple AirPort base station for more information.
