Wireless Security Screen
This screen is accessed by clicking the
Wireless Security
option on the left menu.
The default security setting is
Disabled
. No configuration is required; data is not encrypted
before transmission.
The options are WEP and WPA-PSK.
WEP Wireless Security
The following image shows the Wireless Security screen when WEP is selected.

Data - WEP Wireless Security
Security System
Select the desired option, and then enter the settings for the selected
method:
•
Disabled
No security is used. Anyone using the correct SSID can connect to
your network.
•
WEP
The 802.11b standard. Data is encrypted before transmission.
•
WPA-PSK
Like WEP, data is encrypted before transmission. WPA-PSK is a
later standard than WEP, and provides better security. If all your
Wireless stations support WPA-PSK, you should use this rather
than WEP.
Authentication
Normally this can be left at the default value of "Automatic." If that
fails, select the appropriate value - "Open System" or "Shared Key."
Check your wireless card's documentation to see what method to use.
