Parameter
Meaning
Initiates AOSS automatic wireless configuration. Click this, then
press or click the AOSS button on your AOSS-compatible wireless
client. Repeat for additional AOSS clients.
Click this button to disconnect AOSS connections.
Note: If AOSS connections are disconnected, the SSID and encryption keys
will be restored to their last settings from before AOSS was used.
Encryption Type of Exclusive SSID for
WEP
You may allow a separate SSID specifically for WEP connections. If
“disabled” is selected, then clients will not be able to connect with
WEP.
Encryption level expansion function
Expands security method from TKIP to WPA/WPA2-PSK-mixed
mode.
Dedicated WEP SSID isolation
Set a separate SSID and network segment specifically for WEP
connections. Devices connected with WEP will not be able
to communicate with devices connected using AES/TKIP.
All
connected devices will be able to communicate with the internet.
Allow WEP for Game Console Only
When enabled, the AirStation allows wireless devices to connect
with 64-bit or 128-bit WEP.
AOSS Button on the AirStation Unit
Uncheck to disable the physical AOSS button on the AirStation.
Current Encryption Information
(AOSS connection only)
Displays the encryption type, SSID, and encryption key configured
by AOSS.
[Random]
Click to enter random values for SSID, encryption key, and other
settings.
[KEY base]
Click to return the SSID, encryption key, and other wireless settings
to the values on the case sticker.
[Reset]
Click to return the SSID, encryption key, and other wireless settings
to their previous values.
AOSS Client Information
*
Displays AOSS clients connected to the AirStation and information
of the devices which are wirelessly communicated.

* Only displayed if there are AOSS
Connections
Displays information about Ethernet converters connected to the
AirStation via AOSS.

Chapter 4
Configuration
Basic
The screen to configure a basic wireless settings.
Parameter
Meaning
Wireless Radio
Determines whether to allow wireless communication. If this is
unchecked, then no wireless connections will be allowed.
Wireless Channel
Sets a channel (a range of frequencies) for wireless connections.
With Auto Channel selected, the AirStation will automatically use
the best available channel.
300 Mbps Mode
300 Mbps mode uses twice the normal frequency range, 40
MHz instead of 20 MHz.
In uncongested areas this can increase
performance. To use 300 Mbps mode, set the Bandwidth to 40 MHz
and choose an Extension Channel.
Note: If Auto Channel is selected, then the Extension Channel is set
automatically.

Parameter
Meaning
Broadcast SSID
If [Allow] is checked, then the AirStation will respond to SSID
searches from wireless devices by broadcasting its SSID. If [Allow] is
unchecked, then the AirStation ignores SSID searches from wireless
devices.
Allow multiple SSIDs
Use Single SSID
Clicking [Allow multiple SSIDs] will enable Multi Security, allowing
the use of multiple SSIDs, each with different wireless security
settings. Clicking [Use Single SSID] will disable Multi Security.
The AirStation will then allow one SSID and one type of wireless
security.
Note: When using Multi Security, enable at least one of the following:
SSID1, SSID2, or SSID3.
SSID1
Multi Security SSID1 can use WPA-PSK-TKIP or WPA/WPA2-Mixed for
wireless security.
SSID2
Multi Security SSID2 can use WPA-PSK-AES for wireless security.
SSID3
Multi Security SSID3 can use WEP for wireless security.
Separate
When enabled, wireless devices connected to the AirStation can
communicate only with the Internet side, not with each other.
SSID
Set SSID using 1 - 32 alphanumeric characters.
Wireless authentication
Specifies an authentication method used when connecting to a
wireless device.

Chapter 4
Configuration
Parameter
Meaning
Wireless encryption
You may use any of the following types of encryption:
No encryption
Data is transmitted without encryption.
With this setting, anyone
within range can connect to your wireless network and might
be able to access data on the network.
Not recommended for
anyone with private data that needs to be kept secure.
[No
encryption] can be selected only when [No authentication] is
selected for wireless authentication.
WEP
WEP is a common encryption method supported by most
devices.
WEP can only be selected when wireless authentication
is set to [No authentication].
Note that WEP’s encryption is weak,
and networks protected with WEP are not much more secure
than those with no encryption at all.
Not recommended for
anyone with private data that needs to be kept secure.
TKIP
TKIP is an encryption method which is more secure than WEP, but
slower. Use an pre-shared-key to communicate with a wireless
device.
TKIP can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected
for Wireless authentication.
AES
AES is more secure than TKIP, and faster.
Use a pre-shared-key to
communicate with a wireless device.
AES can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected
for wireless authentication.
TKIP/AES mixed mode
TKIP/AES mixed mode allows both TKIP and AES authentication
and communication.
This is no more secure than TKIP alone, but
more convenient for some users.
TKIP/AES mixed mode can be
selected only when WPA/WPA2 mixed mode - PSK is selected for
wireless authentication.
WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
A pre-shared key or passphrase is the password for your wireless
connections.
There are two different formats for a pre-shared
key.
Use 8 to 63 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive) for an ASCII
passphrase, or use 64 alphanumeric characters (0 to 9 and a to f, not case-
sensitive) for a hexadecimal passphrase.
