Wireless Network
Settings
SSID
Service Set Identifier that identifies the Module to connect to an AP. To make this
connection, the Module and AP must have the same SSID. The SSID cannot contain
spaces. Default setting is the MAC address of the wireless module.
Wireless Network Type
Specifies the type of network in which the Module will be used:
•
Infrastructure = connects to WLAN using an AP.
•
Ad Hoc = used to connect two peer-to-peer devices.
•
Unique = resets card to Adhoc mode and uses the MAC address as the SSID
(
default
)
Ad Hoc Mode Channel
When Wireless Network Type is Ad Hoc, selects the channel used for communication. The
two peer-to-peer devices must use the same channel. Range is 1 to 14 channels. Default
channel is 1.
Access Point Density
Specifies a rate that, if not sustainable with the current association, causes the Module to
look for an AP with which it can maintain the specified rate. A high setting causes the
Module to more readily switch to another AP.
•
Low
- 2 Mbps cannot be sustained. (
default
)
•
Medium
- 5.5 Mbps cannot be sustained.
•
High
- 11 Mbps cannot be sustained.
WLAN Region Code
Module Operation Region
Specifies the wireless channels allowed. This setting only applies when the Module is
operating in Ad Hoc mode. The AP controls the channel used during Infrastructure mode.
Default is US.
Wireless Security
Settings
Wireless Security Mode
Configures the security settings.
Disable
=
security is disabled. (
default
)
wep64
=
64-bit key length (sometimes referred to as 40-bit)
wep128
=
128-bit key length
wpa-psk
=
WPA Pre-Shared Key
wpa-leap =
WPA
LEAP
wpa-leap64
=
Migration mode w/ Cipher suite TKIP+40 bit WEP using
EAP(LEAP).
Requires LEAP username and password
.
wpa-leap128
=
Migration mode w/Cipher suite TKIP+128 bit WEP using
EAP(LEAP).
Require LEAP username and password
.
wpa-psk64
=
Migration mode w/Cipher suite TKIP+40 bit WEP using WPA
PSK.
Requires WPA Passphrase.
wpa-psk128
=
Migration mode w/Cipher suite TKIP+128 bit WEP using WPA
PSK.
Requires WPA Passphrase.
WPA Passphrase
(Preshared Key)
Enter your WPA passphrase.
Re-enter Passphrase
Confirms WPA passphrase entry
Leap User ID
User ID for Leap security mode
Leap Password
Password for Leap security mode
Re-enter Leap Password
Confirm password for Leap security mode
WEP Authentication
Enables or disables WEP authentication:
•
Automatic
= automatically detects the authentication. (default)
•
Open System = communicates the key across the network.
•
Shared Key
= allows communication only with devices with identical WEP settings.
Default Key
Selects the default WEP Key from 1 – 4 if Shared Key or Both is selected for WEP
Authentication.
Default is WEP Key 1.
WEP Key 1 through 4
Specify up to four WEP key values:
•
If WEP Encryption = 64, enter 10 hexadecimal digits for each key.
•
If WEP Encryption = 128, enter 26 hexadecimal digits for each key.
