Configuring Your Cloakbox(tm) for Wireless Usage

While we configure the Cloakbox(tm) to support wireless, for security reasons, we disable it by default. To enable wireless on your Cloakbox(tm), follow these simple instructions:

1. Log into your Cloakbox(tm). When your Cloakbox(tm) was shipped, you should have received a welcome email from WiTopia. Contained in that email is the IP address you need to enter into your browser, as well as the Username and Password to use to log into the Cloakbox(tm).

2. After logging in, click on the Wireless Tab, this should bring you to the "Basic Settings" screen as shown below.

3. Change the "Wireless Network Mode" from Disabled to the wireless type you would like, then click "Save Settings".

4. Next click on the "Wireless Security" tab to configure the security setting. The windows looks like this:

5. For the Cloakbox(tm), we recommend you use either WPA Pre-Shared Key or WPA2 Pre-Shared Key Only, you can fall back to basic WEP or Disable security altogether, but we HIGHLY DISCOURAGE that.

6. That's it. Once you have configured your Cloakbox(tm), you will need to configure your wireless devices similarly to use them with it.
