Quick Start

b)Topology: Select Infrastructure (ESS) mode or AdHoc (IBSS). Infrastructure mode communicates with Access Points. Ad Hoc mode communicates only with other clients.

Topology 0=Infrastructure, 1=AdHoc (0) ?

c)Network Name (SSID): Enter the name of the network to which the WiBox will connect.

Network name (SSID) (LTRX_IBSS) ? _

d)Ad Hoc Network Creation Channel: When Ad Hoc mode is selected, and the WiBox cannot find the specified network, it creates one with that name by transmitting a beacon on the selected channel.

Channel (11) ?

Only channels allowed in the country for which the WiBox is designated can be selected. The country displays in the Setup Mode settings overview.

e)Security: The WiBox features WEP and WPA to secure all wireless communication. If Ad Hoc is selected as topology, only WEP is available.

Security 0=none, 1=WEP, 2=WPA (0) ? _

f)WEP:

Authentication 0=open/none, 1=shared (0) ? _ Encryption 0=WEP64, 1=WPE128 (0) ?

Display current key (N) ? Change key (N) ?

Key type 0=hex, 1=passphrase (0) ? Enter key:

Authentication selects whether the encryption keys are matched (1 = shared) with those of the communication partner before passing through messages or not (2 = open/none).

The Encryption prompt requests the length of the encryption key and the security strength. WEP64 uses a 40 bits/5 bytes key (option 0). WEP128 uses a 104 bits/13 bytes key (option 1).

Select Y (Yes) at the Display current key prompt to show the currently configured key/passphrase.

Select Y (Yes) at the Change key prompt to be able to modify the currently configured key.

The Key type requests whether the new key is in hexadecimal or passphrase format.

Enter key prompts for the new encryption key. The passphrase input is not the same as ASCII input (as used on some products). ASCII is translated directly into hexadecimal bytes according to the ASCII table. The WiBox passphrase is hashed using the Neesus Datacom algorithm (for WEP64) or MD5 (for WEP128).

The passphrase input is safer because it is up to 63 chars long. ASCII input is a maximum of 5 (WEP64) or 13 (WEP128) characters long and limits the number of key combinations.

Please refer to the other equipment’s manual to determine the passphrase input style recommended.
