4.2.8 Security Settings

Operation Mode -> Setup -> Security Settings

Security settings allow you to use encryption to secure your data from eavesdropping.
You can select different security policy to provide association authentication and/or data

encryption. The A.DUO features various security policies including WEP, 802.1x, WPA,

WPA-PSK, WPA2, WPA2-PSK, WPA-Auto, and WPA-PSK-Auto. Please note not all

security policies are available in all operation modes. For example, only WEP is available
currently in WDS Bridge mode and Client Ad hoc mode. All wireless devices on the same

network must use the same security policy. We recommend using WPA-PSK or

WPA2-PSK whenever possible. For WDS Bridge and Client Ad hoc mode, we recommend

using WEP-152 encryption.

WEP: WEP Encryption is the oldest and most available encryption method. However, it is
also the least secure. Due to the limitation of the chipset, only WEP encryption is available
for WDS Bridge Pure MAC mode and Client Ad-hoc mode.

Select one of the WEP key for wireless network: There are total of 4
possible keys for WEP encryption. You need to choose which key will be used

for encryption. All wireless devices on the same network have to use the

same settings. We recommend using WEP Key 1 as in default setting.
