65 Basic Radio: Enable or Disable the device’s wireless signal. Mode: Select between Access Point or Wireless Distribution System (WDS) modes. Band: Select the types of wireless clients that the device will accept. eg: 2.4 Ghz (B+G) Only 802.11b and 11g clients will be allowed. Enable SSID#: Select the number of SSID’s (Wireless Network names) you would like. You can create up to 4 separate wireless networks. SSID# Enter the name of your wireless network. You can use up to 32 characters. Auto Channel: When enabled, the device will scan the wireless signals around your area and select the channel with the least interference. Channel: Manually select which channel the wireless signal will use. Check Channel Time: When Auto Channel is Enabled, you can specify the period of the device will scan the wireless signals around your area.
66 Wireless Distribution System (WDS) Using WDS to connect Access Point wirelessly, and in doing so extend a wired infrastructure to locations where cabling is not possible or inefficient to implement. Note that compatibility between different brands and models is not guaranteed. It is recommended that the WDS network be created using the same models for maximum compatibility. Also note that all Access Points in the WDS network needs to use the same Channel and Security settings. To create a WDS network, please enter the MAC addresses of the Access Points that you want included in the WDS. There can be a maximum of four access points.
67 Advanced This page allows you to configure wireless advance settings. It is recommended the default settings are used unless the user has experience with these functions.
68 Advanced Fragment Threshold: Specifies the size of the packet per fragment. This function can reduce the chance of packet collision. However when this value is set too low, there will be increased overheads resulting in poor performance. RTS Threshold: When the packet size is smaller than the RTS Threshold, then 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 Multi-casted 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 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 increases compatibility. Short Preamble is non-standard, so it decreases compatibility but increases performance. 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.
69 Security This page allows you to set the wireless security settings.
70 Security SSID Selection: Select the SSID that the security settings will apply to. Broadcast SSID: If Disabled, then the device will not be broadcasting the SSID. Therefore it will be invisible to wireless clients. WMM: WiFi Multi-Media is a Quality of Service protocol which prioritizes traffic in the order according to voice, video, best effort, background. Note that 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. • 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.
71 802.1x Authentication RADIUS Server IP Address: The IP Address of the RADIUS Server RADIUS Server port: The port of the RADIUS Server. RADIUS Server password: The RADIUS Server’s password.
72 WEP Encryption: WEP Encryption Authentication Type: Please ensure that your wireless clients use the same authentication type. 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 chars 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 chars 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 is required. The others are optional.
73 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 WPA encryption you would like. Please ensure that your wireless clients use the same settings. Pre-shared Key Type: Select whether you would like to enter the Key in HEX or Passphrase format. Pre-shared Key: Wireless clients must use the same key to associate the device.
