Item Description
HW Mode HW mode of WiFi standard that will be supported by WiFi access
point.
•
IEE 802.11b
• IEE 802.11b+g
• IEE 802.11b+g+n
•
IEE 802.11a
• IEE 802.11a+n
Channel The channel, where the WiFi AP is transmitting.
BW 40 MHz The option for HW mode 802.11n which allows transmission on two
standard 20 MHz channels simultaneously. The option is also avail-
able in the STA mode and it has to be enabled in both the AP and the
STA mode if using the high throughput mode.
WMM Basic QoS for WiFi networks is enabled by checking this item. This
version doesn’t guarantee network throughput. It is suitable for sim-
ple applications that require QoS.
Authentication Access control and authorization of users in the WiFi network.
• Open – Authentication is not required (free access point).
•
Shared – Base authentication using WEP key.
•
WPA-PSK – Authentication using better authentication meth-
ods PSK-PSK.
•
WPA2-PSK – WPA-PSK using new encryption AES.
Encryption Type of data encryption in the WiFi network:
•
None – No data encryption.
• WEP – Encryption using static WEP keys. This encryption can
be used for Shared authentication.
• TKIP – Dynamic encryption key management that can be used
for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication.
• AES – Improved encryption used for WPA2-PSK authentica-
tion.
