– By default, any wireless computer that is configured with the correct wireless network
name or SSID will be allowed access to your wireless network. For increased security, you
can restrict access to the wireless network to only specific computers based on their MAC
addresses. Click Setup Access List to display the Wireless Station Access List menu.

Table 4-1. Wireless Security Options
Field Description
Disable Wireless security is not used.
WEP (Wired
Equivalent
Privacy) You can select the following WEP options:
Authentication Type
• Open: the MBR814X does not perform any authentication.
• Shared: WEP shared key authentication. For a full explanation of WEP shared key, see
the link to “Wireless Communications: in Appendix B.
Encryption Strength
• If Shared or Open Network Authentication is enabled, you can choose 64- or 128-bit
WEP data encryption.
Note : With Open Network Authentication and 64- or 128-bit WEP Data Encryption, the
MBR814X does perform 64- or 128-bit data encryption but does not perform any
authentication.
Security Encryption (WEP) Key
These key values must be identical on all wireless devices in your network (key 1 must be
the same for all, key 2 must be the same for all, and so on).
The MBR814X provides two methods for creating WEP encryption keys:
• Passphrase. These characters
are case sensitive. Enter a word or group of printable
characters in the Passphrase box and click the Generate button.
Note : Not all wireless adapters support passphrase key generation.
• Manual. These values are not case sensitive.
64-bit WEP: enter 10 hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or A-F).
128-bit WEP: enter 26 hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0-9, a-f, or A-F).
WPA-PSK
(Wi-Fi Protected
Access
Pre-Shared Key) WPA Pre-Shared-Key uses a pre-shared key to perform the authentication and generate
the initial data encryption keys. Then, it dynamically varies the encryption key. For a full
explanation of WPA, see the link to
“Wireless Communications: in Appendix B.
Note : Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on
the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do include the client
software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware and driver
must also support WPA.
