Wireless Channel

To transmit and receive data, the Residential Gateway-I uses a frequency channel.

If neighboring wireless networks are using the same channel, it is advisable to have your Residential Gateway-I network using a different one.

Encryption Key

Communication within your network is only possible to wireless computers using the same Encryption Key.

This is what the Residential Gateway-I uses to enable Data Security on your wireless network.

The default value of the Encryption Key equals the 5 last (most right) characters of the Network Name. To prevent any access to your network without permission, it is strongly advised to change the default encryption key value.
