Edimax Technology Adaptor user manual

Parameter	Description
Encryption Mode	None – Disable the encryption mode.
	WEP – Enable the WEP Data Encryption. When the item is
	selected, you have to continue setting the WEP Encryption keys.
	TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
	temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message
	transmitted over a network.) This ensures much greater security
	than the standard WEP security.
	AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
	security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
	advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
	wireless network.
	Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption
	method to ensure the communication.
WPA Pre-Shared Key	The WPA-PSK key can be from 8 to 64 characters and can be
	letters or numbers. This same key must be used on all of the
	wireless stations in the network.
WEP Key	The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the
(Key1 ~ Key4)	wireless network. There are two types of key length: 64-bit and
	128-bit. Select the default encryption key from Key 1 to Key 4 by
	selected the radio button.
	Fill the text box by following the rules below.
	64-bit– Input 10-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”
	range) or 5-digit ASCII characters (including “a-z” and “0-9”) as
	the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef“ or “test1”.
	128-bit– Input 26-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9”
	range) or 13-digit ASCII characters (including “a-z” and “0-9”) as
	the encryption keys. For example:
	“01234567890123456789abcdef“ or “administrator”.
