4.4 The Profile Screen
A profile is a set of wireless parameters that you need to connect to a wireless network. With a
profile activated, each time you start the M-302 it automatically scans for the specific SSID
and joins that network with the pre-defined wireless security settings. If the specified network
is not available, the M-302 will remain disconnected.
If you do not configure and activate a profile, each time you start the M-302 it uses the default
profile to connect to any available network with security disabled.
The default profile allows you to connect to any wireless network without security.
Click the Profile tab in the ZyXEL utility program to display the Profile screen as shown next.
The profile function allows you to save the wireless network settings in this screen, or use one
of the pre-configured network profiles.
