28 – YML902
Select SSID
Your Service Set Identifier (SSID), sets your Wireless Network Name. You can connect multiple
devices including Laptops, Desktop PCs and PDAs to your Wireless Router. To get additional
devices connected, scan for a network, and locate the SSID shown on your Wireless Security
Card. If the SSID does not match, access is denied.
Network
Authentication
This option is used for authentication to the wireless network. Each authentication type has
its own settings as illustrated below. For example, selecting 802.1X authentication will reveal
the RADIUS Server IP address, Port and Key fields.
WEP Encryption will also be enabled.
The settings for WPA authentication are shown below.
WEP Encryption
This option indicates whether data sent over the network is encrypted. The same network
key is used for data encryption and network authentication. Whilst four network keys can be
defined, only one can be used at any one time.
Use the network key found in the drop down list.
Encryption
Strength
This drop-down list box will display when WEP Encryption is enabled.
The key strength is proportional to the number of binary bits comprising the key.
This means that keys with a greater number of bits have a greater degree of security and are
considerably more difficult to crack. Encryption strength can be set to either 64-bit or 128-
bit. A 64-bit key is equivalent to 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal numbers. A 128-bit
key contains 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal numbers. FYI: Each key contains a
24-bit header (an initiation vector) which enables parallel decoding of multiple streams of
encrypted data.
