It is important the Radio Mode parameter correspond to the AP to which the device is to connect. For example, if this
parameter is set to G rates only, the Thor VM2 may only connect to APs set for G rates and not those set for B and G
rates.
Using CKIP
Contact Technical Assistance (page 11-1) if an update to the SCU is needed to support CKIP.
To use CKIP on the Thor VM2:
1. Select WEP from the encryption list and None from the EAP type list. CKIP LEAP is not supported.
2. The Thor VM2 can connect to any AP that is configured for manual WEP or manual CKIP. The Thor VM2 auto-
matically detects whether WEP or CKIP is configured on the AP and connects accordingly.
3. All APs must be configured the same. If some APs are configured with different security types enabled, the Thor
VM2 may experience disconnects or delays when roaming.
Encryption None Type of encryption to be used to protect transmitted data. Available options may vary
by SCU version.
Options are: None, WEP (or Manual WEP), WEP EAP (or Auto WEP), WPA PSK,
WPA TKIP, WPA CCKM, WPA2 PSK, WPA2 AES, or WPA2 CCKM.
An upgrade to the SCU may be necessary to support CKIP. See Using CKIP (page
8-7) for details.
The Encryption type chosen determines if the WEP Keys / PSK Keys button is active
and also determines the available entries in the WEP or PSK pop-up window.
Radio Mode BGA Rates Full Specify 802.11a, 802.11b and/or 802.11g rates when communicating with the AP.
The options displayed for this parameter depend on the type of radio installed in the
mobile device.

B rates only (1, 2, 5.5 and 11 Mbps)
BG Rates Full (All B and G rates)
G rates only (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps)

A rates only (6, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps)
ABG Rates Full (All A rates and all B and G rates with A rates preferred)
BGA Rates Full (All B and G rates and all A rates with B and G rates preferred)
Ad Hoc (when connecting to another client device instead of an AP)
