Chapter 2
Configuring Security
This chapter describes how to set up security features and advanced features of your NETGEAR
WG102 ProSafe 802.11g Wireless Access Point.
Wireless Data Security Options
Your wireless data transmissions can be received well beyond your walls by anyone with a
compatible adapter. For this reason, use the security features of your wireless equipment. The
WG102 Access Point provides highly effective security features, which are covered in detail in
this chapter. Deploy the security features appropriate to your needs.
There are several ways you can enhance the security of your wireless network:
• Use Multiple BSSIDs combined with VLANs. You can configure combinations of VLANS
and BSSIDs with stronger or less restrictive access security according to your requirements.
For example, visitors could be given wireless Internet access but be excluded from any access
to your internal network.
