Configuration
Wireless Setting
To set the 802.11g security and encryption options for this AP, please open the Wireless
Configurtion page. Any new setting will become effective after the Station is rebooted.
Network Type:
Select the one that the Station will be used to connect to.
The Ad-Hoc mode offers communication between wireless stations with
the limited range of each other, eliminating the need for an AP. Without
an AP connecting to a wired LAN, the clients in a Ad-Hoc network can
only share resources with the peers but not be able to access resources
on a wired network.
When this device is configured as a Station and operates in
Infrastructure mode, it will associate with an available AP installed on
Ethernet network. Thus the device that equipped with this Station can
access to the wired LAN via the associated AP.
To successfully associate with an AP, this device must be configured in
Infrastructure mode and use the same SSID and security settings with
the AP. It does not need to configure a channel since it will automatically
receive the channel assignment from the AP.
SSID:
Enter a network name with a maximum limit of 32 characters. Also, you
can click Scan button to get a network list as below.
From this dialog box, please choose any one that is available and click
Choose. The name of the one that you selected will be shown on the
SSID box.
Authentication Type: This is a process in which the AP validates if wireless clients are
qualified to access the AP’s service. It happens prior to any wireless
client can associate to an AP. The option – Shared Key, utilizes WEP
capability to further verify if the wireless client is authorized to share
this AP’s resource. If the client has the wrong key or no key, it will fail
the authentication and will not be allowed to associate with this AP.
Open System makes the authentication be done through a pseudo
process, accepting all kinds of requests, and is mainly used in cases
where connectivity is more important than security.
WEP Enabled:
Click Enable to enable the function setting box. Click Disable to close
this function.
WEP Key Lengths:

Default Key:
Select one of network key that you set on the Key boxes as default one.
After you entering your WEP keys, you should select one of the four
keys to encrypt the data before being transmitted. The AP always
transmits data encrypted using the WEP key. The receiving station will
use the key number to determine which key to use for decryption. If the
key value does not match with the transmitting station, the decryption
will fail. To ensure successful decryption, make sure to have your
wireless stations set identical key tables.
Frequency (Channel): This function is active only in Ad-Hoc connection type. The frequency
you selected in which the radio links are about to be established. Select a
channel that you want. Usually the wireless clients will scan the whole
operable channels and then select the desired communications channel
automatically.
