device, in order to get connected to your network.

 

Broacast SSSID

Select Yes to hide the SSID in so a station cannot obtain the

 

 

SSID through passive scanning. Select No to make the SSID

 

 

visible so a station can obtain the SSID through passive

 

 

scanning.

 

Channel ID

The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11b/g

 

 

wireless devices is called a channel. Select a channel from

 

 

the drop-down list box.

 

Authentication

To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing

 

Type

data transmitted over the network, the router offers highly

 

 

secure data encryption, known as WEP.&WPA. If you require

 

 

high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to

 

 

select from: 64-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP. WEP 128 will offer

 

 

increased security over WEP 64.

 

 

You can disable or enable with WPA or WEP for protecting

 

 

wireless network. The default type of wireless is disabled and

 

 

to allow all wireless computers to communicate with the

 

 

access points without any data encryption.

 

The range of radio frequencies used by IEEE 802.11g wireless devices is called a “channel”. Channels available depend on your geographical area. You may have a choice of channels (for your region) so you should use a different channel than an adjacent AP (access point) to reduce interference. Interference occurs when radio signals from different access points overlap causing interference and degrading performance.

Adjacent channels partially overlap however. To avoid interference due to overlap, your AP should be on a channel at least five channels away from a channel that an adjacent AP is using. For example, if your region has 11 channels and an adjacent AP is using channel 1, then you need to select a channel between 6 or 11.

To disable the WPA/WEP security.

WEP-64bits or

Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data

WEP-128bits

transmission, the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless

 

stations must be the same as

 

the router. There are four keys for your selection. The input

 

format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes are required for 64-

 

bitWEP and 128-bitWEP respectively.

 

If you chose WEP 64-bits, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or

 

10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").

 

If you chose WEP 128-bits, then enter 13 ASCII characters or

 

26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").
