CAUTION:
Any changes you make to the WLAN screen do NOT get saved auto-
matically. Clicking on the ‘Apply’ button on the individual page is not
sufficient for the changes you made to take effect. For change(s) you
made to any WLAN screen to take effect, you will need to perform these
steps.
1. Click the Apply button.
2. Click the Restart Access Point link at the bottom of the page, which will take you
to the System Commands screen.
Note:
An alternative way to access the System Commands Screen to click on the
Tools tab, then select the System Commands option.
3. On the System Commands Screen, click Save All.
This will save all the changes
you have made. You will still need to restart the access point for any changes to
take effect.
4. If you only made changes to the WLAN setting(s), click the Restart Access Point
button for the changes to take effect. OR
5. If you also made changes to the DSL setting(s), click the Restart button for all
changes to take effect.

in the traffic to and from the specified
IP. This feature is only available if you
are using a NetComm wireless card and
the NB5Plus4W.
IP Address

bandwidth. This field is related to the
Video Blast Support and is enabled
when Video Blast Support is checked.
You can enter up to two IPs for the
Video Blast Support features.
Protocol
The protocol used by the IP address.
This field is related to the Video Blast
Support and is enabled when Video
Blast Support is checked. There are
three options: None, TCP, and UDP. You
will need to select TCP or UDP for each

WPA
(Wi-Fi Protected Access) Enable stations
with WPA capability to connect to the
NB5Plus4W.
Note:
Currently VLAN (Virtual LAN) + Multiple SSID with different security options
is not supported. If you have enabled multiple SSID with security turned
off, when you enable any security option (WEP, 802.1x, or WPA), multiple
SSID will be disabled.
Wireless>Security>WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent privacy) is a security protocol for Wireless Local Area Net
-
works (WLAN). WEP provides security by encrypting the data that is sent over the
WLAN.
The NB5Plus4W supports 3 levels of WEP encryption:
• 64 Bit encryption
• 128Bit encryption
• 256 Bit encryption
With WEP, the receiving station must use the same key for decryption. Each radio
NIC and access point, therefore, must be manually configured with the same key.
The screen below illustrates the default setting of the WEP Wireless Security screen.
WEP is enabled by default.
1. Check Enable WEP Wireless Security.
2. Select Authentication Type

Authe°ticatio° Type
Authentication algorithm to use when
the security configuration is set to
Legacy. When the security configuration
is set to 802.1x or WPA, the authentica-
tion algorithm is always open. This field
is enabled when the WEP security field
is checked. There are three options:
• Open: In open-system authentication,
the access point accepts any station
without verifying its identify.
• Shared: Shared-key authentication
requires a shared key (WEP encryp

tion key) be distributed to the stations
before attempting authentication.
• Both: If both is selected, the access
point will perform shared-key authen-
tication, then open-system authentica-
tion.
