(i) WEP Encryption
From the Encryption drop-down menu, select “none”, “64-bit”, or “128-bit”
according to your wireless network’s setting. Select “none” if you have not
configured your wireless network to use encryption. All wireless devices
on your network must share the same network key. There are two types of
encryption to choose from: 64-bit and 128-bit. Using encryption will make
your network more secure, but will slow down the network performance.
Although network performance will be reduced, it is likely the change will
not be detectable to users of the network.
(j) Authentication Mode
This setting allows the Adapter to authenticate communication with the
wireless devices in your network. With “Shared only” mode, all wireless
devices must have the same WEP keys so that all wireless devices can
authenticate each other and start transmitting data.
The default “Open + Shared” setting will automatically detect whether a
wireless device is set to “Open” or “Shared Key” and transmit data using
the appropriate authentication type. You will need to select “Shared only”
mode if your wireless network is also set to “Shared only” mode.
(k) Key ID:
Select the network key (1-4) that will be used to authenticate.
