Chapter 5  Wireless Network Configuration 
Introduction 
The MX7 mobile device uses the LXE 802.11network card and either the Funk® Odyssey Client 
software on the mobile device or the Summit Client software. Both client software utilities 
support WEP encryption, WPA security, no authentication and all authentications listed below.  
The Summit client device is either an 802.11g radio, capable of both 802.11b and 802.11g data 
rates or  an 802.11a radio, capable of 802.11a, 802.11b and 802.11g data rates.  
The Odyssey Client device is an 802.11b/g network card, capable of  both 802.11b and 802.11g 
data rates.  
This chapter is separated into two sections: Funk Odyssey Client Configuration and Summit
