Configuring A Secure Wireless Connection on Windows XP

These steps assume that you are using Windows XP SP2 or higher, and you are using the Intel PROSet software to configure your wireless connection. Go to the Start menu, click on Programs, navigate to the Intel PROSet Wireless software and start it. The software will search for and display the available wireless networks.

Click the CUNESecure network to select it and then click the Connect button. Since there is no profile, yet, for this network, it will lead you through the options to set for this network.

You may change the profile name, if you wish, but leave the Wireless Network Name set to CUNESecure. Click the Next>> button to continue. The software will attempt to automatically configure the connection. It might indicate that it was not able to set all options. That's fine. You will provide any missing information.

Click the Next>> button to continue, and change the security settings to match the picture below. Enter "concordia" (without quotes) for the username, password and confirm password. Enter your email username for the Roaming Identity.

Click the Next>> button to continue to the second step of the security settings, and fill in the information in the bottom half of the screen as below.

Click OK to store the profile.

Click OK to connect to the wireless network using the information you entered. The window will indicate that a connection is being established. It might take a minute or so to complete. If the software does not automatically attempt to make a connection, click CUNESecure to select it and then click the Connect button.

After the connection has been established, the connection quality and speed will be displayed.
