Chapter 6: Wireless Settings

This section mainly deals with the wireless settings, including Basic Settings, Security Setting, Access

Control and Advanced Settings.

Wireless Mode

AP Mode:

router serves as an access point in this

mode to be connected. The work stations around

will be connected with router by SSID to share the

Internet resources. To configure the AP mode,

open the Basic Setting and Security Setting

windows in the Wireless Setting folder.

Station Mode:

In this mode, router is used as a

work station to be connected with an AP by

scanning the AP's SSID and provides the security

authentication. Generally speaking, AP mode is

passive to be connected with work station, but

Station mode always takes the initiative in

connecting with AP.

SSID:

SSID is the unique ID name of access

point. The wireless work station must keep the

same SSID name with the AP's for connections.

By enabling Open Scanning button, the device

can search available APs.

MAC:

To connect certain AP, you need to know

the AP's MAC address. By enabling Open

Scanning button to find out the available AP’s

MAC address.

Channel:

You can use the channel same as the

AP. By enabling Open Scanning button to find out

the available AP's channel.

Security Mode:

router provides the following

security authentication methods:

(1) WEP: selects ASCII format (5 or 13 ASCII

characters except illegal characters.) or Hex

format (10 or 26 Hex characters).

(2) WPA/WPA2-personal (PSK) is safer than other

encryption methods because the key is subject to

change all the time. WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

utilizes the TKIP or AES encryption algorithm.

WEP Mode: The shared key requires the same

WEP keys between the access point and work

station.

Default KEY:

After entering the WEP keys, select

one key as the default one, for example, Key 1

KEY Format:

AASCII: Enter 13 characters with

case sensitive ("a-z", "A-Z" and "0-9"). Hex: enter

26 Hex characters ("A-F", "a-f" and “0~9”).

KEY 1:

If the KEY 1 is selected as default key, the

key will be enabled.

KEY 2:

If the KEY 2 is selected as default key, the

key will be enabled.

KEY 3:

If the KEY 3 is selected as default key, the

key will be enabled.

KEY 4:

If the KEY 4 is selected as default key, the

key will be enabled.

WPA/WPA2 Algorithm:

When the WPA-PSK

/WPA2-PSK authentication is selected, you can

select one from two:

TKIP and AES. For

example, if the wireless provider selects TKIP, the

wireless receiver (client) also needs to select

TKIP for this authentication way.

Password:

When WPA-PSK /WPA2-PSK

authentication type is selected, enter the access

password provided by AP users here.

Apply:

Click “Apply” to make the settings go into

effect.

Cancel:

Click “Cancel” to throw all setting saved

last time.

1. Mixed WEP

WEP

(Wired

Equivalent

Privacy),

a

basic

encryption method, usually encrypts wireless data

using a series of digital keys (64 bits or 128 bits in

length).

By using the same keys on each of your

wireless network devices, you can prevent

unauthorized wireless devices from monitoring

your

transmissions

or

using

your

wireless

resources.

SSID Choice:

Select SSID to be configured

security. The device supports to configure different

security classes between the main SSID and the
