What is WEP?
WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy mechanism based on a 64-bit or 128-bit
shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.
What is WPA-PSK?
WPA-PSK means Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key. It is an enhanced wireless
encryption standards defined by the WiFi Alliances.
What is a MAC Address?
The Media Access Control (MAC) address is a unique number assigned by the
manufacturer to any Ethernet networking device, such as a network adapter, that allows
the network to identify it at the hardware level. For all practical purposes, this number is
usually permanent. Unlike IP addresses, which can change every time a computer logs
onto the network, the MAC address of a device stays the same making it a valuable
identifier for the network.
How do I reset MB6000 to factory default?
When MB6000 is working in normal status, press and hold the
RELOAD
button for about
20 seconds, until all the indicator lights turn off. Then release
RELOAD
button, press the
RESET
button to set up the device again. This will reset MB6000 to its default settings.
How do I resolve issues with signal loss?
There is no way to know the exact range of your wireless network without testing. Every
obstacle placed between MB6000 and a wireless PC will create signal loss. Lead glass,
metal, concrete floors, water and walls will inhibit the signal and reduce range. Start with
MB6000 and your wireless PC in the same room and move it away in small increments to
determine the maximum range in your environment. You may also try using different
channels, as this may eliminate interference affecting only one channel.
