Please refer to the LXE Security Primer to prepare the Authentication Server
and Access Point for wireless communication. The document is available on
the LXE Manuals CD and the LXE ServicePass website.
It is important that all dates are correct on CE computers when using any type
of certificate. Certificates are date sensitive and if the date is not correct
authentication will fail.
