BR-310AC User's Guide
- If you plan to configure the BR-310AC using Smart Wireless Setup, you will not have to get the wireless
setting information.
3-3. Necessary Wireless Setting Information
When you configure BR-310AC using the Configuration Mode, the wireless settings need to
be configured appropriately for your environment. As the same wireless settings must be
configured for both BR-310AC and your Access Point, you need to get the necessary setting
information of your Access Point beforehand.
- The wireless setting information explained in this page is specific to your network and cannot be provided
by Silex technical support. For how to confirm each setting, please refer to the operation manual that
came with your router or contact the manufacturer.
- Depending on your Access Point, WPS may need to be enabled manually. For details, refer to the operation
manual that came with your Access Point.
- If a security feature such as MAC Address filtering is enabled on your Access Point, change the setting so
that BR-310AC can communicate with your Access Point. For details, refer to the operation manual that
came with your Access Point.
- For the IEEE802.1X authentication, refer to 5-2. IEEE802.1X Authentication .
SSID The SSID is an ID that distinguishes a wireless LAN network from others.
For wireless devices to communicate with each other on a wireless network, they must share the same
SSID. (The SSID is also referred to as "ESSID".) Depending on your Access Point, it may have several
SSIDs. If there are different SSIDs for a game console and computer, use the one for the computer.

Mode No Encryption Uses no encryption for wireless communication.
(In this case, you do not have to get any of your settings beforehand.)
WEP If WEP encryption is used, wireless communication will be encrypted using the
settings for "WEP Key 1-4" and "Key Index".
Set the same "WEP Key Size(64bit/128bit)", "WEP Key" and "Key Index" as the wireless
device you wish to connect.
WPA / WPA2 Uses PSK for network authentication.
The encryption key will be generated by communicating with the Access Point
using a Pre-Shared key. WEP key setting is not used for this mode. Set the same "Pre-
Shared key" and "Encryption Mode"(AES/AUTO) as the wireless device you wish to
connect. The Pre-Shared key is also referred to as "Network Key" or "Password".
