Billion Electric Company 7202G Network Router User Manual


 
WEP
WEP Encryption: To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data
transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as WEP.
If you require high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to select from: WEP
64 and WEP 128. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64.
Passphrase: This is used to generate WEP keys automatically based upon the input
string and a pre-defined algorithm in WEP64 or WEP128. You can input the same string in
both the AP and Client card settings to generate the same WEP keys. Please note that you
do not have to enter Key (1-4) as below when the Passphrase is enabled..
Key (1-4): Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data transmission,
the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as the router.
There are four keys for your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes
are required for WEP64 and WEP128 respectively, the separator is “-“. For example, using
WEP64, 11-22-33-44-55 is a valid key, whilst 1122334455 is invalid.
Hide ESSID: User can select Enable or Disable to hide ESSID.
4.3.1.4 DHCP Server
You can disable or enable the DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server or
enable the router’s DHCP relay functions. The DHCP protocol allows your router to
dynamically assign IP addresses to PCs on your network if they are configured to obtain IP
addresses automatically.
