Enable IEEE 802.1x authentication for this network

This is a comupter-to- computer(ad hoc) network; wireless access points are not used

Description

If the network is required for Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) key, type the key in the text box. The key should be 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters according to the WEP mode designated by the network.

Note: The hexadecimal characters include the range of “A-F”, “a-

f” and “0-9”, for example: “0123456aef“ or “01234567890123456789abcdef“.

Enter the same network key again to cofirm the key.

Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data.

IEEE 802.1x authentication provides enhanced security for wireless network. If the wireless network requries IEEE 802.1x authentication for accessing to the network, please select the check box.

The “EAP-MD5 Authentication“ screen (see the screen above) will appear when you attempt to conenct the wireless network which requires for IEEE 802.1x authentication. Please enter the user name and password which your network administrator assigns to you.

Note: This card only supports EAP-MD5 algorithm of the IEEE 802.1x authentication method when running in Windows 98SE/Me/2000/XP operating systems. Windows XP supports more algorithm of IEEE 802.1x such as EAP-TLS, please uses the Windows XP built-in Utility if you need to use the authentication method other than EAP-MD5.

In Computer-to-Comupter mode (Ad Hoc), wireless stations connect to each other directly, no Access Point is required. If the wireless network you selected is in Ad Hoc mode, select this check box.
