keys. Simply configure the Default Key to the one key that you will be using across your network.

On the wireless clients, you can use the passphrase option, and client utility will generate the same 4 keys – or you can manually type in the selected KEY that is configured on the Gateway.

For more security, you can use 128-bit WEP encryption. To use this mode, click the [128 Bit Encryption] option and the configuration section will be displayed. You can manually enter in the 26-digit hexadecimal key or use the passphrase option to generate random dynamic keys.

NOTE: If you are having a difficult time getting the wireless connection up after enabling WEP – please confirm that you have configured the SAME WEP key on both the Gateway and Client card.

WPA-PSK

Select [WPA-PSK] from the [Encryption Type] drop down menu. Next, enter a passphrase value between 8 and 63 characters in the [WPA Passphrase] field.

MAC Filtering

The Gateway can allow the wireless client stations to connect over a wireless connection in 2 different ways:

1.By allowing all wireless stations access;

2.Or by allowing only Trusted PCs.

To access the MAC Filtering configuration page, on the Side Navigation bar, click on [Wireless] link and then click on the [MAC Filtering] link.
