Encryption
Set the type to the minimum required security level. The “+” sign
indicates that the group (broadcast) encryption method is
different from the pairwise (unicast) encryption (WEP and TKIP).

Key type
Indicate whether the new key is in hexadecimal or
passphrase format.
Enter key
Enter the passphrase. The maximum length is 63 characters.
Lantronix recommends using a passphrase of 20 characters
or more for maximum security.
Encryption
Set the type to the minimum required security level. The “+”
sign indicates that the group (broadcast) encryption method
is different from the pairwise (unicast) encryption. For
example, for CCMP+TKIP, CCMP is the pairwise encryption
and TKIP is the group encryption. CCMP is the default.
Fixed or Automatic Data Rate
WiBox 2100E permits the control of the transmission rate. Select 0 to set a fixed data rate, or
select 1 to set an automatic data rate. The default setting is 1 (auto).
TX Data rate 0=fixed, 1=auto fallback (1) ? _
Transmission Data Rate
If the above TX Data rate is set to fixed, the selected data rate is the WiBox 2100E’s fixed
transmission rate. If the above TX Data rate is set to auto, the selected data rate is the WiBox
2100E’s maximum data rate. Lower data rates allow for larger distances. They may also be
required when communicating with older devices. The default setting is 54 Mbps.
TX Data rate 0=1, 1=2, 2=5.5, 3=11
4=18, 5=24, 6=36, 7=54 Mbps (0) ? _
Note: The WiBox 2100E’s maximum data rate cannot be selected when TX Data rate is set to
auto.
Minimum TX Data Rate
Selects the minimum data rate the device will use when auto-fallback is enabled. The default is 1
Mbps.
MinTX Data Rate 0=1, 1=2, 2=5.5, 3=11, 4=18, 5=24, 6=36, 7=54 Mbps <0> ? _
Note: If Auto Rate Fallback is enabled and a minimum TX data rate other than 1Mbps is
configured, the radio will operate in Single Rate Drop mode. This means that if a rate drop
becomes necessary, the radio will drop from the maximum rate to the lowest rate, ignoring all
