Mode:
Select the key code you want to use for WEP Key. HEX or ASCII. When Hex is
selected, you may enter alphanumeric characters in the range of “A-F”, “a-f” and “0-9” in the
WEP Key entry field. Alternatively, you may enter digit hexadecimal values in the range of
“a-z”, “A-Z” and “0-9”.
WEP Key:
Select the level of encryption you want from the drop-down list. WRT-405
supports 64, 128 and 256-bit encryption.
Key 1 ~ Key 4:
There are 4 keys available, please ensure you have enter correct number
for the key values with different Key Length and coding (Hex or ASCII) as 64bit (10 Hex
digit / 5 ASCII), 128bit (26 Hex digit / 13 ASCII) or 256bit (58 Hex digit / 29 ASCII), please
select one of them and enter the key you want to use. Click “Clear” to erase key values.
Note:
128 and 256bit WEP encryption will require more system resources than 64bit encryption. Use
64-bit encryption for better performance.
3.2.3 Advanced
This screen enables you to configure advanced wireless functions.
Firmware Version:
Displays the wireless firmware version. The wireless firmware is
updated when you update the WRT-405 firmware.
Beacon Interval:
Type the beacon interval in the field. You can specify a value from 1 to
1000. The default beacon interval is 100.
RTS Threshold:
Type the RTS (Request-To-Send) threshold in the field. This value
stabilizes data flow. If data flow is irregular, choose values between 256 and 2432 until data
flow is normalized.
Fragmentation Threshold:
Type the fragmentation threshold in the field. If packet transfer
error rates are high, choose values between 256 and 2432 until packet transfer rates are
minimized. Please note that setting the fragmentation threshold value may diminish
system performance.
DTIM Interval:
Type a DTIM (Delivery Traffic Indication Message) interval in the field. You
can specify a value between 1 and 65535. The default value is 3.
Basic Rates (MBps):
Select one of the wireless LAN receive rates.
TX Rates (MBps):
Select one of the wireless communications transfer rates, based upon
the speed of wireless adapters connected to the WLAN.
