the ESSID through passive scanning.
Channel ID:
Select the ID channel that you would like to use.
RTS/CTS Threshold:
Enter a value between 0 and 2432.
Fragmentation Threshold:
Enter a value between 256 and 2432.
WEP Encryption:
To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data
transmitted over the network, the router offers highly secure data encryption, known as
WEP. If you require high security for transmissions, there are two alternatives to select
from:
WEP 64 and WEP 128
. WEP 128 will offer increased security over WEP 64.
Key 1 to Key 4:
Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data
transmission, the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the
same as the router. There are four keys for your selection. The input format is in HEX
style, 5 and 13 HEX codes are required for WEP64 and WEP128 respectively, the
separator is “-“. For example, using WEP64, 11-22-33-44-55 is a valid key, whilst
1122334455 is invalid.
