3.8.1.1 Wireless Security
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encrypts data frames before transmitting over the
wireless network. Select Disable to allow all wireless computers to communicate with
the access points without any data encryption. Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to
use data encryption.
Key#1~Key#4 The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the ADSL Router and the
wireless clients must use the same WEP key for data transmission. If you chose 64-bit
WEP, then enter any
10 hexadecimal digits (“0-9”, “A-F”) preceded by 0x for each key
(1-4). If you choose 1280bit WEP, then enter
26 hexadecimal digits (“0-9”, “A-F”)
preceded by 0x for each key (1-4). The values must be set up exactly the same on the
Access Points as they are on the wireless client stations. The same value must be
assigned to Key 1 on both access point (your ADSL Router) and the client adapters, the
same value must be assigned to Key 2 on both access point and the client stations and so
on, for all four WEP keys.
WPA-PSK
Wi-Fi Protected Access, pre-shared key. Encrypts data frames before
transmitting over the wireless network.
Pre-shared Key is used to encrypt data. Both the ADSL Router and the wireless clients
must use the same WPA-PSK Key for data transmission.
