Set the wireless LAN to work at certain time interval only.
You may choose up to 4 schedules out of the 15 schedules
pre-defined in
Applications >> Schedule
setup. The
default setting of this field is blank and the function will
always work.
Hide SSID
Check it to prevent from wireless sniffing and make it
harder for unauthorized clients or STAs to join your
wireless LAN. Depending on the wireless utility, the user
may only see the information except SSID or just cannot
see any thing about Vigor wireless router while site
surveying. The system allows you to set four sets of SSID
for different usage. In default, the first set of SSID will be
enabled. You can hide it for your necessity.
SSID
Means the identification of the wireless LAN. SSID can be
any text numbers or various special characters. The default
SSID is "Draytek. We suggest you to change it.
Isolate
LAN
– Check this box to make the wireless clients
(stations) with the same SSID cannot access wired
PCs on LAN.
Member
–Check this box to make the wireless clients
(stations) with the same SSID not accessing for each
other.
Channel
Means the channel of frequency of the wireless LAN. The
default channel is 6. You may switch channel if the
selected channel is under serious interference. If you have
no idea of choosing the frequency, please select Auto to let
system determine for you.
Long Preamble
This option is to define the length of the sync field in an
802.11 packet. Most modern wireless network uses short
preamble with 56 bit sync field instead of long preamble
with 128 bit sync field. However, some original 11b
wireless network devices only support long preamble.
Check it to use
Long Preamble
if needed to communicate
with this kind of devices.

Packet-OVERDRIVE
This feature can enhance the performance in data
transmission about 40%* more (by checking
Tx Burs
t). It
is active only when both sides of Access Point and Station
(in wireless client) invoke this function at the same time.
That is, the wireless client must support this feature and
invoke the function, too.
Note:
Vigor N61 wireless adapter supports this function.
Therefore, you can use and install it into your PC for
matching with Packet-OVERDRIVE (refer to the
following picture of Vigor N61 wireless utility window,
choose
Enable
for
TxBURST
on the tab of
Option
).
Rate Control
It controls the data transmission rate through wireless
connection.
Upload
– Check Enable and type the transmitting rate for
data upload. Default value is 30,000 kbps.
Download
– Type the transmitting rate for data download.
Default value is 30,000 kbps.
4.13.3 Security
This page allows you to set security with different modes for SSID 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively.
After configuring the correct settings, please click

There are several modes provided for you to choose.
Disable
- Turn off the encryption mechanism.
WEP-
Accepts only WEP clients and the encryption key
should be entered in WEP Key.
WPA/PSK-
Accepts only WPA clients and the encryption
key should be entered in PSK.
WPA2/PSK-
Accepts only WPA2 clients and the
encryption key should be entered in PSK.
Mixed (WPA+ WPA2)/PSK -
Accepts WPA and WPA2
clients simultaneously and the encryption key should be
entered in PSK.
WPA
The WPA encrypts each frame transmitted from the radio
using the key, which either PSK (Pre-Shared Key) entered
manually in this field below or automatically negotiated
via 802.1x authentication. Either
8~63
ASCII characters,
such as 012345678(or 64 Hexadecimal digits leading by 0x,
such as "0x321253abcde...").
Type
- Select from Mixed (WPA+WPA2) or WPA2 only.
Pre-Shared Key (PSK)
- Either
8~63
ASCII characters,
such as 012345678..(or 64 Hexadecimal digits leading by
0x, such as "0x321253abcde...").
WEP
64-Bit
-
For 64 bits WEP key, either
5
ASCII characters,
such as 12345 (or 10 hexadecimal digitals leading by 0x,
such as 0x4142434445.)

All wireless devices must support the same WEP
encryption bit size and have the same key.
Four keys
can
be entered here, but only one key can be selected at a time.
The keys can be entered in ASCII or Hexadecimal. Check
the key you wish to use.
4.13.4 Access Control
