and A~F).
Key • Use the radio buttons to select the default key.
• Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must
have the same key values.
• Keys must be entered in Hex. Hex characters are the digits
(0 ~ 9) and the letters A ~ F.
Passphrase Enter a word or group of printable characters in the Passphrase
box and click the "Generate " button to automatically configure
the WEP Key(s). If encryption strength is set to 64 bit, then each
of the four key fields will be populated with key values. If encryp-
tion strength is set to 128 bit, then only the selected WEP key
field will be given a key value.
If "WPA1/2-PSK" is selected, the screen will look like the following example.

Authentication Select the desired option:
• WPA-PSK: Like WEP, data is encrypted before trans-
mission. WPA is more secure than WEP, and should be
used if possible.
• WPA2-PSK: This is a further development of WPA-PSK,
and offers even greater security.
• WPA-PSK+WPA2-PSK: This method, sometimes called
"Mixed Mode", allows clients to use EITHER WPA-PSK
OR WPA2-PSK.
PSK Enter the Network key value. Data is encrypted using a key
derived from the network key. Other Wireless Stations must
use the same network key. The PSK must be from 8 to 63
characters in length.
Key Lifetime This determines how often the encryption key is changed.
Enter the desired value.
