Authentication Type
Select an authentication type from the drop-down list. The default setting is Open System .
Open System: The sender and the receiver do NOT share a secret key. Each party generates its own
key-pair and asks the receiver to accept a randomly generated key. Once accepted, this key will only be
used for a short period of time. Afterwards, a new key will be generated and agreed upon.
Shared Key: Authentication is based upon a secret key shared by both the sender and the receiver. If
Shared Key is selected, you cannot choose the WEP disable option.
WPA Pre-shared key:, The WPA Pre-shared Key authentication standard uses a password or “ key”
between 8 and 32 characters. This encryption key is changed after every dialog box using the Temporary
Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which allows users to change keys based on dialog box and automatically
synchronize keys between devices on the network. The TKIP encryption algorithm is stricter than the
one used by WEP but is based on the same standard.
WEP Key
The AirCruiser G supports two WEP standards: 64-bit,152-bit . Select either 64-bits or 152-bits from the
drop-down list activate WEP encryption. The 64-bits encryption uses 40 bits as a secret key,
(user-defined) and the remaining 24 bits are reserved. The 128-bits encryption uses 104 bits as a secret
key, (user-defined) and the remaining 24 bits are reserved.
