Getting started
Understanding your network type
Typically, you can only have one connection between your computer and the
machine at a time.
Wireless network name and network key
Wireless networks require higher security, so when an access point is first set up,
a network name (SSID), the type of security used, and a Network Key are created
for the network. Locate this information before proceeding with the machine
installation.
