To avoid unnecessary cables, you can connect your Webex Board to a Wi-Fi network from the board's settings menu.
On your board, you can choose to use either a wired or wireless network connection after you are done setting up the device. To use Wi-Fi, you must first disconnect the Ethernet cable.
You can use Wi-Fi if your network uses one of the following authentications:
-
Open
-
WPA-PSK (AES)
-
WPA2-PSK (AES)
-
WPA-EAP-PEAP
-
EAP-TLS
-
EAP-TTLS
-
EAP-FAST
You can connect to hidden networks by tapping the gear icon. You can then set up the Wi-Fi manually.
