WEP Required:
WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. WEP is an encryption scheme
that provides the secure wireless data communications to the users. WEP uses a 40-bit key to
control the network access. In order to decode the data transmission, each wireless client on
the network must use the identical 40-bit key. Please see the Security information for details
about the use and generation of the WEP key.
Channel:
You can change the channel number. In case of the Ad-hoc Network Mode, the
change in the channel number is effective. In case of the Infrastructure Network Mode,
changing the channel number is of no concern as the channel is scanned automatically. Please
see the table for the requirements of different countries and the channel frequency.
Threshold: You can select either Off or Hidden Stations . Hidden stations are those clients
that are associated with the AP but are not in range with each other.
PS Mode: PS stands for Power Saving Mode. Currently, the PS Mode is disabled.
After changing the settings in the Configuration Change Dialog box, click on
OK . It takes a
few seconds to set the changes that you made. Then you can visualize the Connection Status ,
Link Quality , Signal and Noise Levels respectively.
WEP Security
:
To provide the secure communication over the wireless medium, we have provided the WEP
(Wired Equivalent Privacy) key. There are two ways of generating this key. This key is an
important in protecting the illegal access to the wireless networks.
You have to set the key at the Access Point also. And all the users who want to contact/share
the resources must type the same key. The WEP key works in the infrastructure mode only.
There are two options in case of the WEP. You can select either of
Disabled , and mandatory .
If you select Disabled, the communications between clients and clients and AP is not secure.
