4-6 Wireless Security
v1.0, November 2010
• Enable (or disable) DNS resolution for www.mywifiext.net and www.mywifiext.com .
When turned on (by default), a user can plug a PC to one of the four Ethernet ports on
WNHD3004 and can access its web GUI through
http://www.mywifiext.net or http://
www.mywifiext.com . If turned off, a user can only access the web GUI by its IP address. The
advantage of turning it off is that the AP and Bridge will have a higher speed for the
connection between them, as the DNS resolution for these two names have some CPU
overhead.
• Enable (or disable) Ethernet Flow Control . Ethernet flow control is enabled by default, but
can sometimes interfere with TCP flow control. If you have TCP performance issues, you can
uncheck the Enable Ethernet Flow Control check box.
Configuring WPA Wireless Security
Wi-Fi Protected Access with Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK) provides extremely
strong security, very effectively blocking eavesdropping. Both methods dynamically change the
encryption keys making them nearly impossible to circumvent. WPA2 adds support for hardware
based AES, which adds improved performance and the strongest data encryption.
Mixed mode allows clients using either WPA-PSK (TKIP) or WPA2-PSK (AES). This provides
the most reliable security, and is easiest to implement, but it might not be compatible with older
adapters.
To configure WPA2-PSK or WPA-PSK+WPA2-PSK:
1. Select Wireless Settings under Setup in the main menu.
2. Select one of the WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK options for the security type. The WPA + WPA2
option is the most flexible, since it allows clients using either one.
3. In the Passphrase field, enter a word or group of 8–63 printable characters. The passphrase is
case-sensitive.
4. Click Apply to save your settings.
Viewing Advanced Wireless Settings
This section describes the wireless settings that you can view and specify in the Advanced
Wireless Settings screen, which you access under Advanced in the main menu.
1. Log in to the unit.
2. Select Advanced Wireless under Advanced in the main menu.
