For the special operating system of Vista, there is indeed a lack of human nature in some configuration aspects. In the previous article, we introduced the wireless network configuration in the Vista system. Next we will introduce the encryption of the wireless network in the Vista system.
Vista system encrypted wireless network 1. enable WEP encrypted wireless network:
First, connect to our wireless router through a wired or wireless connection, log on to the management interface, and add the wireless encryption function in the Basic settings of the wireless parameters. Click "Enable Security Settings" and select "WEP" for the security type. The security option is "automatic selection" and the key format is "hexadecimal ".
Next, add a key, which is the string we use for encryption. Remember it. For example, save the setting of 1980198019 that I added and the wireless router will automatically restart. After the restart, the WEP-encrypted wireless network is enabled.
Vista system-encrypted wireless network 2. WEP-encrypted wireless network:
After enabling the wireless network, we can see the corresponding wireless network signal on the client's computer. At the same time, the wireless network is secure and enabled.
So how to connect to this WEP encrypted network? Where should I enter the key? The following is a brief introduction.
Step 1: on the above page, we can see the corresponding encrypted wireless network. You only need to double-click it to connect.
Step 2: because our wireless network is encrypted by WEP, you need to enter the correct "security key or password ", enter the WEP encryption information 1980198019 set in the wireless router, and click the "Connect" button in the lower right corner.
Step 3: If the settings are correct, we hope to prompt "successfully connect to softer". We can also select "Save this network" to facilitate future connection, you can also select "enable this connection automatically", so that when the computer enables the wireless function, it will automatically find the network, find the softer wireless network, and automatically configure the WEP password for connection.
Step 4: Open "Control Panel-> network and internet-> network connection" to see the "wireless network connection" that is successfully connected ".
So far, we have completed configuring WEP encryption information and connecting to the wireless network that has enabled WEP encryption authentication.
Vista system encrypted wireless network 3. Manage wireless network connection settings:
VISTA has its own wireless network management function. This function can be used to manage the wireless network information added and configured before, so as to avoid repeated input of WEP encryption and other information.
Step 1: Open Control Panel> network and sharing center of VISTA, and find manage wireless network on the left ".
Step 2: in the management and use wireless network window, we can see the ADD, adapter attributes, configuration file type and other information. Generally, we use the "add" button to add a wireless network.
Step 3: Take the WEP-encrypted wireless network as an example. First, the VISTA system will ask you how to add a network and select "add a network located within the computer ".
Step 4: As described in the previous article, the VISTA system automatically scans wireless signals in the current network.
Step 5: However, the connection method mentioned above is only applicable when the wireless network broadcasts the SSID number. If the wireless network broadcasts the SSID number, in this case, the wireless network cannot be viewed through the above operations. In this case, we need to select "manually create network configuration file.
Step 6: In the next "manually create a network configuration file" setting, we will set it according to the actual situation, including the Network Name (also known as the SSID number). We will select WEP for the security type, the security key/password is set as 1980198019 before being added. You also need to select two options. One is to automatically enable this connection, which can help us automatically connect to the set wireless network; the other is to "connect even if the network is not broadcast ", this is the connection we mentioned earlier when the SSID number is not broadcast. After the settings are complete, click "Next" to continue.
Step 7: After successfully adding wireless network settings, click "Connect" to connect to the encrypted wireless network.
Step 8: after adding the configuration, we will see the configured wireless network configuration in "manage Wireless Network Connections.
Step 9: Set the connection mode to automatic or manual connection. If the connection mode is automatic, the network will be automatically connected as long as the wireless network exists on the network.
Vista system encrypted wireless network IV. Summary:
So far, we have completed the work of locking the wireless network and connecting the wireless network under the VISTA system, and our home wireless network has become more secure, no user who has not obtained the WEP encrypted ciphertext will be able to connect successfully.
