Your computer needs to be using a wireless adapter or have built-in wireless.
The wireless adapter should be 802.11b / g compatible.
If you’re using a laptop bought within the last year or two, it’s likely to have
wireless built in. You need to turn on wireless on some laptops using a switch or
option in the software. Check the documents supplied with the computer.
These are available at and most computer shops. Check your
computer manual to make sure the type of adapter you plan to buy is compatible
with your computer. The wireless adapter should be 802.11b or g compatible.
Please see your computer or wireless adapter manual. For help with setting up
a wireless connection to your Fibre Hub, run the CD that’s included in your
Welcome Pack.
Your Fibre Hub is set with standard WEP security, which helps prevent others
accessing your data transfers or connecting to your wireless network. You can
upgrade this level of security to WPA. Your Fibre Hub can also support alternative
wireless security options such as WPA2 and network name (SSID) hiding – you can
set these up using your Fibre Hub Manager (see ‘How can I change my Fibre Hub’s
security from WEP to WPA’ on page 39).
For more information, please go to
and type ‘wireless security’ in the search box at the bottom of the web page.
