Encryption
This function allows you to encrypt sending/receiving data within the wireless LAN. By encrypting the
data, even if the data was intercepted by an unauthorized user, it would be illegible. Encryption is
performed using the same encryption key for all the registered devices on the wireless LAN.
Always set encryption. If you send unencrypted data, there is a chance that it might be read by a third
party or your PC may be invaded etc.
The type of authentication in encryption is not only Shared Key, but also Open System. Authentication
conversion is done automatically by this product to match the device.
Channel Sets the channel to receive/send data within the network. Select a channel
between 1 and 11. (The default for 802.11b/g is 7.) When there are multiple
wireless LANs, and the channel numbers overlap in the figure below (for
example, Channel 1 and Channel 4), data speed may be reduced. In that
case select a different data channel.
