Hi, Let's see... Do you have the following equipment in addition to the Apex: a wireless router? This device allows more than one computer to connect wirelessly to the Internet. Here are the recommended settings and explanations: * SSID: A Service Set IDentifier is the name of your wireless network e.g. home, work, etc. When you set up a wireless network, give this network a unique name that you can identify with. * Infrastructure vs. ad-hoc: Infrastructure mode means that you are using a router (commonly called access point) to connect to the Internet, whereas ad-hoc means you are connecting two computers to each other. * Security: This determines the security and its strength of your network. There are three types availible: open (no security), WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) Personal (otherwise known as PSK, or pre-shared key). As for setting up a network, it is better to do it from a computer - although there are routers which allows you to set it up using a website. For best practices, I recommend using a wireless router connected to Verizon modem, a unique SSID, WPA Personal with at least eight characters for security code. Set this up using your computer (if you have one). The best wireless router that I heard of is D-Link (I personally use Linksys). Hope this helps. Cheers, Joseph

I'd like to configure my wireless network to work with my BrailleNote. I looked in the Users Guide, but I'm not at all familiar with any of the information required in the form fields. I'm using Windows 7 and my ISP is Verizon. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Serena ___ Replies to this message will go directly to the sender.
