Networks that have a lock icon next to their name require a password. After you select your network, enter the network password when you're prompted. If you don't know the network password, check with the owner of the Wi-Fi network you're trying to join.  Make sure the "Remember this network" box is checked so that you will always connect to the PTS Secured Wireless network wherever that network is available.
