(Service Set Identifier) is a name that identifies your wireless network. Access Points and wireless clients attempting to connect to a specific WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) must use the same SSID. The default setting is default.

Click on the pull-down menu; select from thefollowing options: Infrastructure – connecting the WLAN using an Access Point such as the DWL-1000AP+. (The default setting.)

Ad-Hoc– wireless mode used when connecting directly to a computer equipped with a wireless adapter in a peer-to-peer environment (use this setting if you do not have an Access Point).

The default wireless channel setting is channel 6. Select the channel that is the same as the other wireless devices on your network.

Select the transmission rate on the network. Auto is the default setting.

Select Long or Short Preamble. The Preamble defines the length of the CRC block (Cyclic Redundancy Check is a common technique for detecting data transmission errors) for communication between the Access Point and the roaming wireless Network adapters. Long Preamble is the default setting. Note: High network traffic areas should use the shorter preamble type.

Choose one of the following modes: None – No encryption is selected.

WEP – The user can select 64-bit or 128-bit encrytpion in HEX or ASCII mode.

WPA-PSK– Selecting this mode will require an input of the preshared key between the camera and the wireless device it is connected to.

Choose one of the following authorization modes:

Auto – Will automatically adjust to the Authentication mode of the wireless client.

Shared Authentication – Allows communication only with other devices with identical WEP settings.

Open Authentication – Communicates the key across the network.

Select the key length of 64-bits (10 characters in HEX or 5 in ASCII), 128-bits (26 characters in HEX or 13 in ASCII).

Select either HEX or ASCII.
