Using the SSID (network name) for Wi-Fi network connection

You can select the SSID (network name) of your Wi-Fi router/access point and connect your aibo to your Wi-Fi network.

Before you do the following, make sure:

  • You can access the Internet through your Wi-Fi network.

  • You take a note of the following information about your Wi-Fi router/access point.

    • SSID*1

    • Password*2

      *1 “SSID” is the name used to identify a particular Wi-Fi router/access point. It may also be described as the “network name.”

      *2 “Password” may also be described as the “encryption key,” “security key,” “network key,” or “KEY.”

    If you do not recall the SSID of your Wi-Fi router/access point, refer to the supplied document; or ask the person who made your Wi-Fi network settings or the manufacture of your Wi-Fi router/access point. You may find the SSID printed on the label on your Wi-Fi router/access point.
