How do I connect a BrightSign player to a wireless network in BrightAuthor:connected?

Follow Avatar support@brightsign.biz

You can connect to a wireless network using the WS103 wireless module.

BrightSign players support most commonly used wireless encryption formats: WEP (64 & 128), WPA (TKIP), and WPA2 (AES). WPA Enterprise is supported using EAP-TLS (with DER, PEM, or PKCS#12 certificates) and PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2 (with a username and passphrase). Wired authentication via 802.1x is also supported. 

You can view a full list of WS103 specs here.

Note: Wired authentication via 802.1x isn't supported for WPA/WPA2 Enterprise.

In New Device Setup the wireless settings of a player are configured by checking Enable Wireless under Advanced Device Settings > Network Properties and entering the network's SSID and Security Key.

Also, any networked model that doesn't have a wireless module can use a wireless bridge (game adapter) connected to the Ethernet port.

    This appears to need updating. The wireless settings moved. For me, they are grayed out as well (second photo)

    Make sure that Enable Wireless is checked under PLAYER -> HOST CONFIGURATION.

    So how do you join a WPA Enterprise network? Brightauthor: Connected appears to be missing the option to use PEAPv0/MSCHAPv2 with a username and pw.

    Why is the password area grayed out?
