Configuring Wi-Drive

Using the Wi-Drive App, you can customize the wireless network settings for Wi-Drive. The default settings are:
Device Name: Wi-Drive, Visibility Status: ON, Wireless Channel: 11, and Security: None.
To access Wi-Drive's Network Settings, please follow these steps:
1. Select the Wi-Drive App icon on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch
device.
2. Select the Home icon (upper left.)
3. Select the Device Name link, i.e. Wi-Drive (192.168.200.254).
4. Select the settings icon (gear symbol, lower left.)
5. Select the Wi-Drive Settings button.
A. Device Name – commonly referred to as an SSID, or
Service Set IDentifier, this field allows you to specify a
device name (between 1 and 32 characters) that will
broadcast in the list of available wireless networks on your
iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch device. The default name is
Wi-Drive as seen in Figure 5.1.
B. Visibility Status – this gives you the option to hide or
unhide the SSID specified in the 'Device Name' field. By
default, the visibility status is turned 'ON'. If you wish to
turn this feature 'OFF', the device name will NOT be

broadcasted in the list of available wireless networks on
your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch device; however, you can
still join the Wi-Fi network by entering the device name
manually using the menu option, 'Other...'.
C. Wi-Fi Channel – this setting allows you to select a specific
frequency channel used to communicate with other devices
on your wireless network. The default setting is Channel 11
(2.462 GHz.)
D. Security – this option helps prevent unauthorized access to your Wi-Drive wireless network by prompting
users for a password. The security protocols supported by Wi-Drive are WEP, WPA, WPA2, and WPA2
Mixed. The default setting is 'None.'
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) – User-defined password, must be exactly 13 characters in length
•
WPA or WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access) – User-defined password, must be 8 to 13 characters in length
•
Mixed – Combination of the other security protocols

f the visibility status has been turned off, you can still join the Wi-Drive network by entering the SSID manually on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod
touch, as long as you know the 'Device Name' (Step A). Please note that a password will be required if the security option is enabled.
