(Optional) Setting the Wi-Fi Parameters
The TE10 has a built-in Wi-Fi module and thereby can connect to a Wi-Fi hotspot, serve as a Wi-Fi hotspot, or both at the same time.
When Wi-Fi under System Settings > General > Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on the web interface is set to Disable, the Wi-Fi function is unavailable for the endpoint.
Connecting to a Wi-Fi Network
- On the user interface, choose System Settings > Network > Wi-Fi and select Wi-Fi. The endpoint automatically scans available Wi-Fi hotspots, as shown in Figure 2-11.
- Before connecting the TE10 to a Wi-Fi hotspot, disable the SIP ALG function of the wireless router.
- Only 5 GHz Wi-Fi hotspots can be found and connected when the TE10 has Bluetooth enabled or its Wi-Fi mode is set to 5 GHz under System Settings > Network > Wi-Fi Hotspot. 5 GHz is currently unsupported in some countries.
- Select the desired Wi-Fi hotspot and press OK.
- If the Wi-Fi hotspot to connect requires a password, enter the password in the dialog box that is displayed and select Connect.
- If you select More, all detected Wi-Fi hotspots will be displayed.
- If you select Others, a dialog box is displayed asking you to enter information about a known Wi-Fi hotspot contained in the list. After you set required parameters and select Connect, you can connect to this Wi-Fi hotspot.
Setting the Wi-Fi Hotspot
- On the user interface, choose System Settings > Network > Wi-Fi Hotspot and set the Wi-Fi hotspot parameters, as shown in Figure 2-12.
Only the connections from 5 GHz supported devices are allowed when the TE10 has Bluetooth enabled or its Wi-Fi mode is set to 5 GHz under System Settings > Network > Wi-Fi Hotspot.
