Description

 

If one or more of the clients use 802.11g or 802.11b

 

connecting to the gateway, the gateway will be in

 

802.11b/g mixed mode. At Super-G, the channel will

 

be fixed at 6, the regular 802.11g and 802.11b clients

 

cannot connect to the gateway when in this mode.

 

The default value is in 802.11b/g mixed mode, you

 

can use both 802.11b and 802.11g’s wireless network

 

interface card to connect to the gateway. If you want

 

to support only 802.11b, choose 802.11b only.

Enable Wireless Access List

Check the box to enable the wireless access control

 

list. Only users in the access list can connect to the

 

wireless network when enabled. Click Setup Access

 

List to configure the list.

Security Mode

It is strongly recommended to use one of the Wireless

 

Security modes to protect your local network.

 

The gateway supports four different types of security

 

modes for your network: WEP (Wire Equivalence

 

Protection) encryption, WPA (Wi-Fi Protected

 

Access) Pre-Shared key, WPA RADIUS (Remote Ac-

 

cess Dial In User Service) and 802.1x RADIUS.

 

To enable Security Settings, choose one of the secu-

 

rity modes you desired.

WEP

There are three levels of WEP encryption, 64-bit,

 

128-bit and 152-bit.

 

The higher the encryption bit, the more secure your

 

network, however, speed is sacrificed at higher bit

 

levels. To utilize WEP, select the desired encryption

 

bit, and enter a passphrase then click generate. You

 

might enter the WEP key in HEX or ASCII form.
