Saving WiFi Authentication Key?

3 replies · 2,630 views · Started 28 July 2006

Is it possible to save a WiFi authentication key in the N80? It is a serious pain to have to re-enter the 16 hex digits (which are impossible to remember!) each time I connect.

Thanks,

goto settings >connection> Access points> select wifi router or the hotspot, edit WLAN security mode select wep, go back select WLAN security setting, WEP key setting choose 128bit, change wep key format to hex and enter wep key

Yes, it is. Do like khedara said, but Ill try to explain it better. From the menu > tools > settings > connection > access points > options > new access point > use default settings. Long isnt it?

Then from there you have everything you need, choose a name, select Wireless Lan from Data Bearer, then the name of your access point if it is in range, then from WLAN security mode select your type of encryption, WPA is best, but older routers might not be able to do it. Then you need to go in to WLAN security sett. and put in your pre shared key, then FINALLY you are done 😊
