Connecting to a WLAN in your home Before using a WLAN, each computer must be connected to it. To connect to a WLAN: ● Verify that the WLAN device is turned on. If it is on, the wireless light is on. If the wireless light is off, turn on the wireless device. NOTE On some models, the wireless light is amber when all wireless devices are turned off. ● Verify that your router is correctly installed and configured. For instructions, refer to your router documentation or call your router manufacturer for help. ● Open the Windows Network and Sharing Center and use the Connect to a network option to connect your computer to the WLAN. NOTE The functional range (how far your wireless signals travel) depends on WLAN implementation, router manufacturer, and interference from walls and other electronic devices. For more information about using a WLAN: ● Refer to information from your ISP and the documentation included with your wireless router and other WLAN equipment. ● Access the information and Web site links provided in Help and Support. ● Refer to http://www.hp.com/go/techcenter/wireless. Connecting to a public or corporate WLAN Contact your ISP or search the Web for a list of public WLANs near you. Web sites that list public WLANs include Cisco Internet Mobile Office Wireless Locations, Hotspotlist, and Geektools. Check with each public WLAN location for cost and connection requirements. Contact your network administrator or IT department for information on connecting your computer to a corporate WLAN. ENWW Connecting to a WLAN in your home 9
