Configuration
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) used for wireless
connections. With Auto Channel selected, the AirStation will
automatically use the best available channel.
150 Mbps Mode
150 Mbps mode is a method to increase wireless transmission
throughput to 40 MHz per channel. To use 150 Mbps mode, set the
Bandwidth to 40 MHz and choose an Extension Channel.
Note: If using Auto Channel for the wireless channel, then the Extension
Channel is set automatically.
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.
[Use Multi Security function]
[Do not use Multi Security function]
Clicking [Use Multi Security function] will enable Multi Security,
allowing the use of multiple SSIDs, each with different wireless
security settings. Clicking [Do not use Multi Security function] will
disable the Multi Security function. The AirStation will then allow
one SSID and one type of wireless security.
SSID1
Always enabled and supports all wireless encryption types.
Encryption can be disabled.
SSID2
Always enabled and supports all wireless encryption types.
Encryption can be disabled.
SSID3
SSID3 can use WPA-PSK-AES encryption.
SSID4
SSID4 can use WEP encryption.
Separate feature
When [use] is 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.

Parameter
Meaning
Wireless encryption
You may use any of the following types of encryption:
No encryption
Data is transmitted without encryption. Avoid this option since
any communication may be intercepted.
[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. Use an encryption key to communicate with a wireless
device.
WEP can only be selected when [No authentication] is selected
for Wireless authentication.
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.
TKIP/AES mixed mode can be selected only when WPA/WPA2
mixed mode - PSK is selected for Wireless authentication.

Parameter
Meaning
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 a [character]
(ASCII) passphrase, or use 64 digits using 0 to 9 and a to f (not case-
sensitive) for a [hexadecimal] passphrase..
Rekey interval
Set the update interval for the encryption key between 0 and 1440
(minutes).
Set up WEP encryption key
A WEP encryption key (passphrase) may have any of four different
formats.
A
[character] (ASCII) passphrase may use either 5 or 13
alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive).
A [hexadecimal] passphrase
may use either 10 or 26 digits using 0 to 9 and a to f (not case-sensitive).

Advanced

Parameter
Meaning
BSS Basic Rate Set
Set the communication speeds of administrative and
communication control frames of the AirStation and wireless
devices.
Multicast Rate
Set the communication speed of multi-cast packets.
Reverse Direction Grant
For faster wireless communication, you may enable receiving
packets while sending packets.
DTIM Period
Set the beacon responding interval (1 -255) for which the AirStation
responds to a wireless device. This setting is effective only when
power management is enabled for the wireless device.
Privacy Separator
If enabled, the Privacy Separator blocks communication between
wireless devices connected to the AirStation. Wireless devices will
be able to connect to the Internet but not with each other. Devices
that are connected to the AirStation with wired connections will
still be able to connect to wireless devices normally.
Output Power
You may reduce the wireless radio power output. The power of a
radio wave and the distance that that radio wave reaches are almost
proportional, so if the output power is reduced, the distance that the
signal reaches also becomes smaller.
