User's Manual Part 1

Chapter 6 — Configuring the Computer
70 Series Mobile Computer User Manual 73
The mobile computer contains an 802.11 radio to transfer data using
wireless communications and to support the TCP/IP network
protocols. This section of the manual assumes that your wireless
network is set up, including your access points.
By default, the 802.11 radio is disabled. Use the following procedure to
enable the Wi-Fi radio using Intermec Settings. If you would like to use
ScanNGo bar codes to easily enable the radio and set the default
security settings, see Appendix C “ScanNGo Wi-Fi Configuration
Bar Codes” on page 165.
To enable the Wi-Fi radio on your computer and configure
communications:
1 Tap Start > Settings > System > Intermec Settings.
2 From the Intermec Settings main menu, tap Communications >
802.11 Radio > Radio Enabled.
3 Select the Radio Enabled check box and tap OK. By default, the
computer uses Funk security and enables DHCP.
4 Use Intermec Settings to configure any other parameters you need
to use for communication with your network.
5 Configure 802.11 security. For help, see “About Wireless
Security” on page 81.
