802.1x Authentication
This authentication is used in addition to WEP. 802.1x
Authentication. It is a much stronger type of authentication
than WEP.
Network Key 1 – 4
Sets the static WEP keys when WEP encryption is enabled.
Enter five ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal digits for a
64-bit key.
Enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal digits for a
128-bit key.
When both WPA encryption and WEP encryption are enabled,
only keys 2 and 3 are available for WEP encryption.
Current Network Key
Selects the encryption (transmit) key when WEP encryption is
enabled.
PassPhrase
Sets the text to use for WEP key generation.

Wireless 802.11 Guest Network Page
This page allows you to configure a secondary guest network on the wireless interface.
This network is isolated from the LAN. Any clients that associate with the guest network
SSID is isolated from the private LAN and can only communicate with WAN hosts.

Field Descriptions for the Wireless 802.11 Guest Network Page
Field
Description
Guest Network
You may have several different wireless Guest Networks
running with different options. You can select which wireless
Guest Network to modify.
Current Guest Network
When set to
Enabled
, beacon frames are transmitted with
the Guest SSID
Guest Network Name (SSID)
Assigns a unique network name (SSID) for the guest network,
which appears in the beacon frames.
Closed Network
With a closed network, users type the SSID into the client
application instead of selecting the SSID from a list.
This feature makes it more difficult for the user to gain access.
DHCP Server
Enables the DHCP server to give out leases to guest network
clients from the specified lease pool. If the DHCP server is
disabled, guest network stations (STAs) need to be assigned
static IP addresses.
IP Address
Specifies the gateway IP relayed to guest clients in DHCP
lease offers.
Subnet Mask
Specifies the subnet mask for the guest network.
Lease Pool Start
Specifies the starting IP address for the guest network lease
pool.
Lease Pool End
Specifies the ending IP address for the guest network lease
pool.
Lease Time
Specifies the lease time for the guest network lease pool once
the Configuration Manager completes the WAN provisioning.

Field
Description
54g™ Mode
Sets these network modes:
54g Auto
54g Performance
54g LRS
802.11b only
54g Auto accepts 54g, 802.11g, and 802.11b clients, but
optimizes performance based on the type of connected clients.
54g Performance accepts only 54g clients and provides the
highest performance throughout; nearby 802.11b networks
may have degraded performance. 54g LRS interoperates with
the widest variety of 54g, 802.11g, and 802.11b clients.
80211b. accepts only 802.11b clients.
Basic Rate Set
Determines which rates are advertised as basic rates. Default
uses the driver defaults. All sets all available rates as basic
rates.

54g™ Protection
In Auto mode, the AP uses RTS/CTS protection to improve
802.11g performance in mixed 802.11g + 802.11b networks.
Turn protection off to maximize 802.11g throughput under
most conditions.
XPress™ Technology
A performance-enhancing Wi-Fi technology designed for
increasing throughput and efficiency. Use it when there are
mixed wireless networks in the surrounding area from
802.11a/b/g networks.
Afterburner™ Technology
A performance-enhancing Wi-Fi technology that enhances the
existing 802.11g standard by increasing throughput by 40
percent.
Rate
Forces the transmission rate for the AP to a particular speed.
Auto will provide the best performance in nearly all situations.
Output Power
Sets the output power as a percentage of the hardware’s
maximum capability.
Beacon Interval
Sets the beacon interval for the AP. The default is 100, which
is fine for nearly all applications.
DTIM Interval
Sets the wakeup interval for clients in Power Save mode.
When a client is running in Power Save mode, lower values
provide higher performance, while higher values provide lower
performance.
Fragmentation Threshold
Sets the fragmentation threshold. Packets exceeding this
threshold are fragmented into packets no larger than the
threshold before packet transmission.
RTS Threshold
Sets the RTS threshold. Packets exceeding this threshold
cause the AP to perform an RTS/CTS exchange to reserve the
wireless medium before packet transmission.
