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. Available range of the channel is 1-11.
With
Auto
Channel selected, the AirStation will automatically use
the best available channel.
This parameter is disabled if WDS feature is activated.
150Mbps Mode
150 Mbps mode uses twice the normal frequency range, 40
MHz instead of 20 MHz. In uncongested areas this can increase
performance.
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.
This parameter is disabled if WDS feature is activated.
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 ignore SSID searches from wireless
devices.
SSID1
Always enabled and support all wireless security methods of the
AirStation. Security can be disabled if necessary.
SSID2
SSID2 can use WPA-PSK-TKIP or WPA/WPA2-Mixed for wireless
security. Security can be disabled if necessary.
SSID3
SSID3 can use WPA-PSK-AES for wireless security.
SSID4
SSID4 can use WEP for wireless security.
Separate feature
When "
Enabled
", wireless devices connected to the AirStation can
communicate only with the Internet side, not with each other.
This parameter does not function if WDS is enabled.
SSID
Set SSID using 1-32 alphanumeric character (s).

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.
WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
Enter a pre-shared key for use with wireless authentication.
* Use 8 to 63 alphanumeric characters (case-sensitive) for a preshared key
when you select character type as an input method. Enter 64 digits using
0 to 9 and a to f (not case-sensitive) when you select hexadecimal type as
an input method.

a wireless device. This setting is effective only when the power
management feature is enabled on a 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.
