Network ID is used for identifying the Wireless LAN (WLAN). Client stations can roam freely over this product and other
Access Points that have the same Network ID.
(Please refer to the included Wireless Security Card insert for your default SSID)
Wireless
Turns on or off the 5GHz wireless radio.
AP Isolation
When enabled, this isolates the wireless clients from other clients of the router so that they are inaccessible to each other.
SSID Broadcast
The router will broadcast the SSID so that wireless clients can find the wireless network.
Channel
The wireless radio channel in use by your network.
Wireless Mode
Choose A only, N only, A/N mixed or A/AN/AC mixed.
(The factory default setting is A/AN/AC mixed)
Authentication
You may select from the following authentication types to secure your wireless network:
Open
Shared
Auto
WPA
WPA-PSK
WPA2
WPA2-PSK
WPA/WPA2
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK.
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK is a newer type of security. This type of security gives a more secure network compared to WEP. Use
TKIP Encryption Type for WPA-PSK and AES for WPA2-PSK.
Please enter the key in the “Preshare Key”. The key needs to be more than 8 characters and less than 63 characters. It can
be any combination of letters and numbers.
(Please refer to the included Wireless Security Card insert for your default WPA-PSK2 key)
Encryption
The type of encryption to use on the wireless network. This may be AES, TKIP or AES/TKIP.
Pre-shared Key
The password to use for access to the 5GHz wireless network.
Note: The configuration for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK is identical
After configuring wireless security, you also need to configure your wireless adapter to use the same security settings before you
can connect wirelessly. Not all wireless adapters support WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK/WPA/WPA2 security. Please refer to your
wireless adapter user guide for more information.
We strongly recommended that you set up wireless security such as WPA-PSK (when the wireless client supports WPA) in order
to secure your network.
