CHAPTER 5 WI-FI CONFIGURATION
Wireless Network Advanced Configuration
FX7500 uses the wpa_supplicant application to connect with wireless networks. Advanced users can place
their own configuration file in the /apps folder to connect to wireless networks. This configuration file is
wpa_supplicant.conf. The parameters of this file are well documented in the public domain. Refer to
http://linux.die.net/man/5/wpa_supplicant.conf for the most commonly used parameters and
http://www.daemon-systems.org/man/wpa_supplicant.conf.5.html for all available parameters. Also see
Appendix E, Copying Files To and From the Reader for instructions on copying files to /apps directory.
If /apps/wpa_supplicant.conf is present in the reader, the reader uses this file to connect to a wireless
network. This supersedes the configuration in the Administrator Console, which changes to reflect the
custom configuration file.
