<p>An object of the present invention is to enable the configuration tasks needed to form a wireless LAN to be performed using a simple method while increasing security during such configuration. In a wireless network configuration system (GH1) including an encryption key setting system (LH1), where an access point (20) determines after the power thereto is turned ON that configuration for connection to a wireless LAN has not yet be carried out, the access point (20) activates a restricted receiving mode in which only an initial configuration packet is accepted. A terminal (50) that has sent an initial configuration packet and the access point (20) that has received such initial configuration packet while the restricted receiving mode is active each create an identical WEP key with reference to the data on a CD-ROM (51) or the data in a ROM (12), respectively, and set and register the created WEP key in itself. <IMAGE></p> |
