and WPA2-PSK.
Open
Open system authentication simply consists of two communications. The first is
an authentication request by the client that contains the station ID (typically the
MAC address). This is followed by an authentication response from the
AP/router (WiFi gateway) containing a success or failure message. An example
of when a failure may occur is if the client's MAC address is explicitly excluded
in the AP/router configuration. In this mode you can enable 802.1x feature if
you have another RADIUS server for user authentication. You need to input IP
address, port and shared key of RADIUS server here.
In this mode, you can only choose “None” or “WEP” in the encryption field.
Shared
Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking part in the
authentication process have the same "shared" key or passphrase. The shared
key is manually set on both the client station and the AP/router. Three types of
shared key authentication are available today for home or small office WLAN
environments.
Auto
The gateway will select appropriate authentication method according to WiFi
client’s request automatically.
WPA-PSK
Select Encryption mode and enter the Pre-share Key. You can fill in 64
hexadecimal (0, 1, 2…8, 9, A, B…F) digits, or 8 to 63 ASCII characters as the
pre-share key. The available encryption modes are “TKIP”, “AES”, or
“TKIP/AES”. In this mode, you don’t need additional RADIUS server for user
authentication.
WPA2-PSK

If you do not enable the Lazy mode, you have to
enter the wireless MAC address for each WDS peer one by one. Or you can press
