the encryption mode.
There are two dialog boxes showing the data transmitted and the data received. The
two signal lines show the Signal Strength and the Link Quality of the device.
Configuration
The Configuration function helps you to configure the Network and the Security.
Network: the setting of the Network mode, the SSID and the Channels.
Ø Network Mode:
If you want to connect with an Access Point, please set to “Infrastructure” mode. If
you have more stations and just want to set them as local network, please set the
mode to “Ad-Hoc” mode.
Ø Network SSID:
The SSID differentiates one Wireless LAN group name from another; so all access
points and all devices attempting to connect to a specific Wireless LAN group
name must use the same SSID. A device will not be permitted to join the BSS
unless it can provide the unique SSID.
If the SSID parameter is “ANY”, it will detect the strongest signal of the wireless
station.
Ø Channel:
It shows radio channel numbers that used for Wireless LAN networking.
The channel number can be set on channel 1~11only under the Ad-Hoc operation
mode. In Ad-Hoc mode stations, each station must have the same channel numbers
and SSID.
In Infrastructure mode, the Wireless USB Adapter will automatically detect the
channel number of the Access Point.
Security: the setting of the Network Encryption.
This function is used to protect wireless communication from eavesdropping. A
secondary function of encryption is to prevent unauthorized access to a wireless
network, and it can be achieved by using the Encryption function.
Ø Enable Encryption: Enable or Disable the WLAN encryption on the WLAN
USB Adapter.
Ø Authentication Mode:
Auto: Will automatically adjust to the Authentication mode of the WLAN USB
Adapter.
Open System: with the same WEP key between the stations, the stations don’t
need to be authenticated, and this algorithm was set to default.
Shared Key: with the same WEP key between the stations in this
Authentication algorithm, this type will use packets with encryption by
transferring a challenge text which will be acknowledge by both side of the
stations. In order to choose which authentication algorithm will be used, you
must know which one the station supports this algorithm first.
WPA: WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security is selected, configuration is
enabled. Please click the “Certificate” button. The below window is pop up.
Then, please select the certificate that user wants to use and enter the server
name and login name.
WPA-PSK: WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi Protected Access pre-shared key) is a simpler
version that does not support 802.1x and requires a separate RADIUS server for
mutual authentication.
Enter a Passphrase in the WPA-PSK dialog box. This Passphrase must be the
same on each computer that is connected to the wireless network.
WPA2: WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access 2) is the second generation of WPA;
providing enterprise and consumer Wi-Fi user with a high level of assurance
that only authorized user can access their wireless networks. WPA2 is based on
the final IEEE802.11i amendment to the 802.11 standard and is eligible for
FIPS 140-2 compliant. WPA2 is select, configuration is enabled. Please click
the “Certificate” button. The below window is pop up. Then, please select the
certificate that user wants to use and enter the server name and login name.
WPA2-PSK: WPA-PSK2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access pre-shared key) is a simpler
version that does not support 802.1x and requires a separate RADIUS server for
mutual authentication.
Enter a Passphrase in the WPA2-PSK dialog box. This Passphrase must be the
same on each computer that is connected to the wireless network.
It is recommended to select “Auto” if you are not familiar with the setting.
Ø Encryption Mode:
There are two kinds of encryption mode, WEP encryption and WPAPassphrase..
Click the Enable Encryption to activate the security of the USB Adapter.
WEP-Key: WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) relies on a secret key that is
shared between a mobile station and a base station (Access Point).
WEP-Passphrase: the Passphrase in the dialog box helps you to create a group
of WEP key in the Key Setting.
Ø Default Key (Key 1 ~ Key 4):
You can type the key that you want to use from Key#1 to Key #4, and the key
that you type will be the encryption between the stations that you connected
with.
Ø Key Length, Key Format and WEP Key:
If you select 64bit in Hex format, you must type 10 values in the following
range (0~F, hexadecimal), or 64bit in ASCII format, you must type 5 values in
the following range (0~9, A~Z and a~z Alphanumeric).
If you select 128bit in Hex format, you must type 26 values (0~F, hexadecimal),

“Maximum”.
Ø Preamble Type:
The usage of the preamble is to limit the packet size of the data to transmit. It is
recommended to choose the short preamble when the link quality is bad, it is to
prevent the wasting time of resending a long packet that is lost. The Default is Auto
which access short and long preamble.
Ø Fragment Threshold:
11
Fragmentation Threshold is a way of transmitting the packets that will be
fragmented. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432 bytes. It is
recommended to fragment the packet when the link quality is bad, it is to prevent
the wasting time of resending a long packet that is lost.
Ø RTS/CTS Threshold:
The RTS/CTS Threshold is a station initiates the process by sending a RTS frame,
the other ends receives the RTS and responds with a CTS frame, the station must
receive a CTS frame before sending the data frame. This is to prevent the collisions
by each station. Choose a setting within a range of 256 to 2432 bytes. It is
recommended limiting a long packet to prevent each station waiting too long to
transmit a data.
