Channel No To communicate in "802.11 Ad-hoc" or "Ad hoc" mode, all Wireless
stations MUST use the same Channel number.
•
If using "802.11 Ad-hoc" or "Ad-hoc" mode, select the value you
wish to use on your Wireless LAN.
•
If using "Infrastructure" mode, the Channel is selected
automatically, to match the Channel used by the Access Point.
•
If you experience interference (shown by lost connections and/or
slow data transfers) you may need to experiment with different
channels to see which is the best.
Network Type Select the correct value for your Wireless LAN.
•
802.11 Ad-hoc mode is used when there is no Wireless Access
Point, and each Wireless station communicates directly with other
Wireless stations. This is the current standard.
•
Ad-hoc mode is used when there is no Wireless Access Point, and
each Wireless station communicates directly with other Wireless
stations. This is the older standard.
•
Infrastructure mode is used when each Wireless station connects
to the Wireless Access point. This also provides access to the
wired LAN.
Encryption
WEP Disabled/
Enabled If Disabled (default), data is NOT encrypted before being transmitted.
If Enabled, you must provide either the 64 Bit key table or the 128 Bit
keys, as described below. The key is used to encrypt the data before
transmission.
64 Bit
•
If selected, data is encrypted, using the default key, before being
transmitted. The receiving station must be set to 64 Bit
Encryption, and have the same Key value in the same position in
its key table. Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.
•
Default Key - select the key you wish to be the default.
Transmitted data is ALWAYS encrypted using the Default Key;
the other Keys are for decryption only.
Key Table :
This table is used when Encrypting and Decrypting data. All stations,
including this Access Point, always transmit data encrypted using their
default key. The key number (1, 2, 3, 4) is also transmitted. The
receiving station will use the key number (1, 2, 3, 4) to determine
which key value to use for decryption. If the key value does not match
the transmitting station, decryption will fail.
The easiest way to ensure there are no problems is to have every
Station, including the Access Po int, use the same key table (all entries
identical). Then, it does not matter which key is used as the default
key.
128 Bit If selected, data is encrypted using the key before being transmitted.
The receiving station must be set to use 128 Bit Encryption, and have
the same Key value. Otherwise, it will not be able to decrypt the data.
WEP
Authentication Options are "Open System" or "Shared Key".
Some Wireless cards and Access Points do not support both methods.
Check your documentation to determine the correct value to use.
