3.1.3 Wireless Settings

Wireless settings allow you to set the wireless configuration items.

1.

Wireless Module:

You can enable or disable wireless function.

2.

Wireless Operation Mode:

There are different wireless operation modes for

you to configure.

A.

AP Router Mode:

The device functions as a router and Access Point

simultaneously.

B.

AP only Mode:

The device functions as a pure access point.

C.

WDS Hybrid Mode:

The device can support WDS and AP mode

simultaneously.

D.

WDS only Mode:

The device can provides WDS point-to-point bridging,

44

and point-to-multipoint bridging for deployment over large area. With the WDS

feature, the WLAN coverage range can be easily extended.

E.

Lazy Mode:

Lazy mode can auto-learning WDS peers without input other

AP's MAC address. Otherwise, you have to input the peer AP's MAC address

one by one to extend your wireless range.

F.

Universal Repeater Mode:

Universal Repeater is another technology used

to extend wireless coverage. It provides the function to act as Adapter (client) and

AP at the same time and can use this function to connect to a Root AP and use

AP (SSID name is the same as Root AP) function to service all wireless stations

within its coverage. All the stations within the coverage of this access point can

be bridged to the Root AP.

3.

AP Number:

Always keep

“

AP1

”

as the default.

4.

Wireless Schedule:

You can limit Wi-Fi functions in a period of time if required.

5.

Network ID (SSID):

Network ID is used for identifying the Wireless LAN

(WLAN). Client stations can roam freely over this device and other Access Points

that have

the same Network ID. (The factory default setting is “default_2.4g”)

6.

SSID Broadcast:

The router will broadcast beacons that have some

information, including SSID so that wireless clients can know how many AP devices

by scanning the network. Therefore, if t

his setting is configured as “Disable”, the

wireless clients cannot find the device from beacons.

7.

Channel:

The radio channel number. The permissible channels depend on the

Regulatory Domain. The factory default setting is as follow: channel 1~11 for North

45

America. (Channel 1~13 for European (ETSI); channel1~ 14 for Japan).

8.

Wireless Mode:

Choose “B/G mixed”, “B only”, “G only”, “N only”, “G/N mixed”

or “B/G/N mixed”. The factory default setting is “B/G/N mixed”.

9.

Authentication mode:

You may select one of authentication to secure your

wireless network: Open Shared, Auto, WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2, WPA-

PSK/WPA2-PSK, or WPA /WPA2.

A. Open

Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is

an authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the

MAC address). This is followed by an authentication response from the AP/router

containing a success or failure message. An example of when a failure may

occur is if the client's MAC address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router

configuration.

B. Shared

Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the

authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared

key is manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of

shared key authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN

environments.

C. Auto

The AP will Select the Open or Shared by the client’s request automatically.

D. WPA-PSK

Select Encryption and Pre-share Key Mode

If you select HE

X, you have to fill in 64 hexadecimal (0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B…F)

digits. If you select ASCII, the length of pre-share key is from 8 to 63.

Fill in the key, Ex 12345678
