WEP Data Privacy

Wireless Gateway User Guide

SSID

To communicate, all Wireless stations MUST use the same

(ESSID)

SSID/ESSID.

 

The default value is default

 

Note! The SSID is case sensitive.

 

 

Channel No.

Select the value you wish to use on your Wireless LAN. If you experi-

 

ence lost connections and/or slow data transfers you may need to

 

experiment with different channels to see which is the best.

 

 

 

 

WEP Data Privacy

 

 

Off

If OFF (default), data is NOT encrypted before being transmitted.

 

 

 

64 Bit

If selected, data is encrypted, using the default key, before being

Encryption

 

transmitted. The receiving station must be set to 64 Bit Encryption,

 

 

and have the same Key value in the same position in its key table.

 

 

Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.

 

Default Key

 

 

Select the key you wish to be the default. Transmitted data is

 

 

ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key; the other Keys are for

 

 

decryption only.

 

Key Table

 

 

This table is used when Encrypting and Decrypting data. All

 

 

 

stations, including this Access Point, always transmit data en-

 

 

 

crypted using their default key. The key number (1, 2, 3, 4) is

 

 

 

also transmitted. The receiving station will use the key number

 

 

 

(1, 2, 3, 4) to determine which key value to use for decryption.

 

 

 

If the key value does not match the transmitting station, de-

 

 

 

cryption will fail.

 

 

The easiest way to ensure there are no problems is to have

 

 

 

every Station, including the Access Point, use the same key ta-

 

 

 

ble (all entries identical). Then, it does not matter which key is

 

 

 

used as the default key.

 

 

 

128 Bit

If selected, data is encrypted using the key before being transmit-

Encryption

 

ted. The receiving station must be set to use 128 Bit Encryption,

 

 

and have the same Key value. Otherwise, it will not be able to de-

 

 

crypt the data.

 

Key

 

 

 

Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must have the

 

 

same key.

 

 

WEP

Select the appropriate value - "Open System" or "Shared Key". Check

Authentication

your Wireless card's documentation to see what method to use. Some

 

Wireless cards do not support both methods.

 

 

 

 

Wireless Station Access

Enable Wireless Access Point

If enabled (default), this device can act as a Wireless Access Point.
