(Default: AP) Band Select the types of wireless clients that the device will accept. Example: 2.4 GHz (b/g/n): All 802.11b/g/n clients will be allowed. 2.4 GHz (b/g): Only 802.11b/g clients will be allowed. 2.4 GHz (n): Only 802.11n clients will be allowed. Enable SSID# Select the number of SSIDs (Wireless Networks) you would like to enable. You can create up to 4 separate wireless networks by enabling 4 SSIDs. SSID# Enter the name of your wireless network. You can use up to 32 characters. Example: “Life Is Good”, “Guest Network”, etc. Auto Channel When Enabled, the Router will scan the wireless signals around your area and select the channel with the least interference. When Disabled, you will need to configure the Channel settings on the Router. Channel Manually select which channel the wireless signal will use. Check Channel Time When Auto Channel is Enabled, you can specify the frequency the Router will scan the wireless signals around your area.
59 Wireless Distribution System (WDS) When WDS is enabled, the Router functions as a wireless repeater and is able to wireless communicate with other APs via WDS links. WDS allows you to connect Access Points wirelessly and extend a wired infrastructure to locations where cabling is impossible or difficult to implement. To create a WDS network, enter the MAC addresses of the Access Points that you want included in the WDS links. There can be a maximum of four access points. Important: • A WDS link is bidirectional; so this AP must know the MAC Address of the other AP, and the other AP must also have a WDS link back to this AP. Make sure the APs are configured with the same Channel and Security settings. • Compatibility between different brands and models is not guaranteed. It is recommended that the WDS network be created using products from the same manufacturer for maximum compatibility.
60 7.2. Advanced This page allows you to configure advanced wireless settings. It is recommended that default settings are used unless you have experience with these advanced functions. Advanced
61 Fragment Threshold Specifies the size of the packet per fragment. Selecting a smaller number can reduce the chance of packet collision. However, when the value is set too low, increased overhead will likely result in poor performance. RTS Threshold When the packet size is smaller than the RTS Threshold, the packet will be sent without RTS/CTS handshake which may result in incorrect transmission. Beacon Interval The time interval that the device broadcasts a beacon. This beacon is used to synchronize all wireless clients on the network. DTIM Period A Delivery Traffic Indication Message informs all wireless clients that the access point will be sending Multicast data. N Data Rate You can limit the transfer rates between the device and wireless clients. Each Modulation Coding Scheme (MCS) refers to a specific transfer speed. Channel Bandwidth Set whether each channel uses 20 or 40Mhz. To achieve maximum 802.11n speeds, 40Mhz channels must be used. Preamble Type A preamble is a message that helps access points synchronize with the client. Long Preamble is standard-based so it increases compatibility. Short Preamble is not standard-based so it decreases compatibility; however it also increases performance. Auto as default. CTS Protection When Enabled, the performance is slightly lower however the chances of packet collision is greatly reduced. Tx Power Set the power output of the wireless signal.
62 7.3. Security This page allows you to configure the wireless security settings. Select the SSID to which you want to apply the security settings, and select your preferred security type from the Encryption drop-down list. We recommend choosing WPA-PSK as the Encryption type and WPA2 (AES) as the WPA type for your home network. Enter a passphrase (security key) for your wireless network and click Apply. Security SSID Selection Select the SSID to apply the security settings. Broadcast SSID If Disabled, the Router will not broadcast the SSID. The SSID will be invisible to wireless clients. WMM Wi-Fi Multi-Media is a Quality of Service (QoS) protocol which prioritizes traffic in the order according to voice, video, best effort, and background.
63 Note: In certain situations, WMM needs to be enabled to achieve 11n transfer speeds. Encryption The encryption method to be applied. You can choose from WEP, WPA pre-shared key or WPA RADIUS. • Disabled - no data encryption is used. LG-Ericsson strongly recommends that you set up wireless security. • WEP - data is encrypted using the WEP standard. • WPA-PSK - data is encrypted using the WPA-PSK standard. This is a later standard than WEP and provides much better security than WEP. If all your Wireless stations support WPA-PSK, you should use WPA-PSK rather than WEP. • WPA2-PSK - This is a further development of WPA-PSK and offers even greater security, using the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) method of encryption. • WPA-RADIUS - This version of WPA requires a Radius Server on your LAN to provide the client authentication according to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are encrypted using the WPA standard. If this option is selected: • This Access Point must have a "client login" on the Radius Server. • Each user must have a "user login" on the Radius Server. • Each user's wireless client must support 802.1x and provide the login data when required. • All data transmission is encrypted using the WPA standard. Keys are automatically generated, so no key input is required. IEEE 802.1x is an authentication protocol. Every user must use a valid account to login to this Access Point before accessing the wireless LAN. The authentication is processed by a RADIUS server. This mode only authenticates users by IEEE 802.1x, but it does not encrypt the data during communication.
64 802.1x Authentication RADIUS Server IP Address The IP Address of the RADIUS Server. RADIUS Server port The port number of the RADIUS Server. RADIUS Server password The RADIUS Server’s password.
65 WEP Encryption: WEP Encryption Authentication Type Please ensure that your wireless clients use the same authentication type. Key type ASCII: Regular text (recommended) HEX: For advanced users (uses 0~9 and A~F) Key Length Select the desired option, and ensure the wireless clients use the same setting. • 64-bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 64-bit Encryption, the key size is 10 characters in HEX (0~9 and A~F). • 128-bit - data is encrypted, using the default key, before being transmitted. You must enter at least the default key. For 128-bit Encryption, the key size is 26 characters in HEX (0~9 and A~F). Default Key Select the key you wish to be the default. Transmitted data is ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key; the other Keys are for decryption only. You must enter a Key Value for the Default Key. Encryption Key # Enter the key value or values you wish to use. Only the Key selected as Default
66 is required. The others are optional. WPA Pre-Shared Key Encryption: WPA Pre-Shared Key Encryption Authentication Type Please ensure that your wireless clients use the same authentication type. WPA type Select the preferred WPA encryption type. The recommended WPA type is WPA2 (AES). Make sure your wireless clients use the same settings. Pre-shared Key Type Select whether you would like to enter the Key in Passphrase or HEX format. Default: Passphrase (you can use any character from 0~9 and A~Z, with a length from 8 to 63 characters) Pre-shared Key: This is the key or password to the wireless network. Wireless clients must use the same key to connect. Note: If using the Passphrase format, the key must be from 8 to 63 characters in length. WPA RADIUS Encryption:
67 WPA RADIUS Encryption WPA type Select the preferred WPA encryption type. Make sure your wireless clients use the same settings. RADIUS Server IP address Enter the IP address of the RADIUS Server.
