Networks Only visible if the internal wireless is in Client Mode when the device is selected. Shows a list of all networks (hotspots) available for connection. Select the name of the desired network to enter its network key and connect to it. Change administrator password (Access Point mode, WIFI-1 only) This can be set to increase WIFI-1 security, preventing change of settings via a connected device's browser (eg on a tablet), or other MFDs on the network. The default user and password are both admin. Restore defaults Deletes all user made changes, and restores the wireless to factory settings. Client settings Opens the Wireless Client Settings dialogue, which shows networks previously connected to, regardless of whether they are currently visible or not. Allows deletion of a network from the list, and toggling of Automatic connection setting. Simultaneous Client and Access Point operation If it is desirable to have the MFD accessible to a tablet while also having internet access for GoFree store and Insight Genesis, it is necessary to use two wireless units - one must be in Client mode, the other in Access Point mode. This can be a combination of internal wireless and an external WIFI-1, or two external WIF-1 units. Two external WIFI-1 units will offer the advantage of providing both features to all MFDs on the network (where applicable). 66 Software Setup | HDS Carbon Installation Manual
