AP Name: 

appoint a name for the AP. 

‹

 

SSID:

 It is an ASCII string up to 32 characters used to identify a WLAN that 

prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs. The SSID 
value must be the same in all stations and AP in the extended WLAN. 

‹

 

Wireless Channel: 

There are 14 channels available. The channels differ 

from country to country. Select the channel to be used. 

‹

 

Extended Range: 

When you enable this function, AP will reduce data rate 

with a long distance.

 

‹

 

Authentication Type:  

The authentication type default is set to open system.  

There are four options: Open System; Shared Key; WPA; WPA-PSK.  You 
may want to set to Shared Key when the clients and AP in the same wireless 
network enable the WEP encryption.  All the nodes and hosts on the network 
must use the same authentication type.   

‹

 

WEP Key: 

To disable WEP security, click on the “Disable” option. To 

enable WEP security, there are 2 types to select – 64bits and 128 bits.  When 
it is selected, the key value must be entered in ASCII or HEX format. 

Note:

 When WEP security is enabled, all the wireless clients that wish to 

connect to the Access Point must also have WEP enabled with the identical 
WEP Key value entered. 

‹

 

WPA-PSK: 

If WPA-PSK is enabled, users need to set the key in the 

passphrase field as the below screen.  The key length should be 8 characters 
at least.. 

 

Figure 15. Basic Setting – WPA-PSK

 

Click “Apply” after you configure the settings to save the changes, the new 
settings are now been saved to Access Point and will be effective once the 
Access Point restarts.
