mode you need to implement.
z
The SSID (Service Set IDentifier)
: A unique name setting in the Access Point
which the client bridge wants to connect to in the point to point mode or shares
among all points in the ad-hoc mode. The SSID must be identical for each point in
the wireless network and is case-sensitive. Leaving the field blank means that
using “any” to connect to the Access Point having the strongest signal received by
the client bridge in point to point mode.
z
Channel
: the shared channel among all points in point to point mode. The
permissible channels depend on the Regulatory Domain.
z
Transmission rate (M bits/s):
Select and define all the supported rates ( 1
、
2
、
5.5
、
11 M-bit/s) at which the client bridge will communicate with the Access
Point in point to multi-point or other client bridges in point to point mode. You can
also leave it to the default (automatic)
to let the client bridge decide which data
rate to use.
z
Access Point Density:
select the three different rates (high, medium, low) to
scan the Access Points in your wireless network.
z
WEP configuration:
An acronym for Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is an
encryption method used to protect your wireless data communications. WEP uses
a combination of 64-bit or 128-bit keys to provide access control to your network
and encryption security for every data transmission. To decode a data
transmission, each point in a network must use an identical
64-bit
or
128-bit
key.
Higher encryption levels mean higher levels of security, but due to the complexity
of the encryption, they may mean decreased network performance. For 64-bit
keys, you must enter
10
hex digits
(0-9; A-F)
(ex: 12345ABCDE) into the four
key boxes. For 128-bit keys, you must enter
26
hex digits (ex:
1234567890ABCDEF1234567890) into the key box. If you leave a key box blank,
that means setting this key to all zero.
z
WEP Enabled:
In order to utilize WEP encryption, please click the checkbox. If
you do not wish to utilize WEP encryption, leave the checkbox blank.
z
WEP key lengths
: Select 64-bit or 128-bit key you want to use.
z
WEP key to use
: Select which set of key you want to use for transmitted data.
