802.11 B only:
The Wireless Router only supports 802.11b standard.
802.11 G only:
The Wireless Router only supports 802.11g standard.
WLAN Channel:
Select the channel for wireless communication from the pull-down menu or
tick the
“auto”
checkbox to allow the router to automatically search the available channel.
The default WLAN channel is 2.437 GHZ (Channel 6).
WLAN SSID:
Specify the unique name for your WLAN, up to 32 characters long. This will
allow client devices with the same SSID as you defined here to connect to the Access Point.
Tick the
“Hide SSID”
checkbox when you do not want the specified SSID to be broadcasted.
Authentication Method:
There are six options available for authentication. The default
setting is
“OPEN”
which means that no authentication is required when clients connect to
this WLAN VoIP Residential Gateway.
1. Open:
No authentication is required. By default, open access is enabled to grant access
to clients trying to connect to the wireless network. However, this will expose network to
tremendous security risks.
Encryption Type:
Select
“NONE”
if you prefer no encryption with your data; otherwise,
choose
“WEP”
as your encryption type.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is based on IEEE 802.11 standard and uses the RC 4
encryption algorithm to encrypt data over the wireless network so as to protect your data
from unauthorized accesses or intruders. When connecting to a WEP network, the user
has to know a key that can be either 64-bit or 128 bit with ASCII characters or
hexadecimal characters.
WEP Encryption Length:
Select either 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP. 128-bit WEP
requires a longer key than 64-bit WEP. Your wireless clients must have the same WEP
encryption length as this Wireless Router; otherwise, the connection will not be
established.
Key 1 ~ 4:
Enter values for Key 1 to Key 4 with either HEX or ASCII characters.
