WPA and  WPA2 are similar,  although  WPA2 offers  a  higher  level  of  security.  Whichever 
you selected in step 7, you then have to specify the variant used. They are TKIP (Temporal 
Key Integrity Protocol) and AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). As previously, the setting 
should match that used by  your  router. Some routers allow  both  to be  specified, and the 
router will use whichever variant is supported by the connected device. AES is regarded as 
the more secure option if it is available.
The radio will then require you to enter the encryption key. This must be a string of between 8 
and 63 characters and must be identical to the key which has been entered into your router. 
Note  –  the  encryption  key  is  sensitive  to  the  use  of  upper  and  lower  case  letters  and 
symbols. Take care to enter the key exactly, or the radio will not be able to connect to your 
router. The three controls on  the  right-hand side of the screen have special functions. You 
can quickly  access these by pressing the Info button and  then use the Folder Up  or Down 
and Select buttons as needed:
 select ‘   ’ to erase a character just entered (long press to clear); Info again to continue
 select ‘ ’ when the complete encryption key has been entered
 select ‘ ’ to cancel and go back to the TKIP / AES options screen
Once the key is entered the radio should connect to the network.
While  the  radio  is  trying to  connect  to  the  network,  it  will  display  ‘Processing…’  when 
checking the  encryption key (if  using the WiFi  connection) and  then ‘Connecting…’. If the 
connection  is  made  successfully,  the radio will  return to the Network settings menu. If the 
unit cannot connect, then it will display a ‘Failed to connect’ message and will return to the 
SSID entry screen (step 6).Once connected, the network settings are stored in the radio. The 
settings are  retained whenthe radio is disconnected from the mains. You may now use the 
Back and Radio or Media buttons to access the functions of your radio.
