13.3 Basic Security Settings
If you select Wireless Settings from the top navigational menu and then select Basic Security Settings in the
submenu options at the left of the screen, the following screen will appear. This screen allows you to configure basic
security settings for your Router such as SSID and WEP security values. Enter the appropriate settings in the fields
provided, and then click Apply to allow the settings to take effect. The following table explains the details of this
feature.
IMPORTANT:
1. If you are connecting to VersaLink via a wireless network adapter, the computer’s wireless network adapter must
be configured with VersaLink’s Service Set ID (SSID) in order to communicate with VersaLink; that is, the SSID
used in the wireless network adapter must be identical to VersaLink’s SSID. The default SSID for VersaLink is
the serial number of the unit (located below the bar code on the bottom of the unit and also on the shipping
carton). Locate and run the utility software provided with the wireless network adapter, and then enter the
identical SSID and security settings displayed in the VersaLink. For privacy, you can change the SSID and
security settings to your desired values.
2. In order for every computer on your network to connect to the VersaLink wirelessly, confirm that each computer
is using the same security settings you have configured in VersaLink’s Basic Security Settings screen. After you
have configured all the settings in this screen, please record the settings for future reference.
