Broadcast SSID

Select “Yes” to make the SSID to be visible so wireless clients can

scan the router within the network. Select “No” if you want to hide

the SSID of the router. Wireless clients have to set the same SSID of

the router in order to access the network.

Channel ID

The radio channel used by the wireless LAN. All devices in the same

wireless LAN should use the same channel.

Authentication Type

To prevent unauthorized wireless clients from accessing the router,

this router supports WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication

type. If the router has enabled the authentication, all the wireless

clients’ settings have to be consistent with the router for building the

connection.

WEP/WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

Parameter

Description

WEP-64Bits

WEP is less level of security than WPA. WEP supports 64-bit and

128-bit key lengths to encrypt the wireless data. The longer key

length will provide higher security. When “WEP-64Bits” is selected,

you have to enter exactly 5 ASCII characters (“a-z” and “0-9”) or 10

hexadecimal digits ("0-9", "a-f") for each Key (1-4).

WEP-128Bits

When “WEP-128Bits” is selected, you have to enter exactly 13 ASCII

characters (“a-z” and “0-9”) or 26 hexadecimal digits ("0-9", "a-f") for

each Key (1-4).

Parameter

Description

WPA-PSK

WPA-PSK is suitable for home and small business. It uses TKIP for

data encryption. When “WPA-PSK” is selected, please enter 8-64

characters as the “Pre-Shared Key”.

WPA2-PSK WPA2-PSK

is also for home and small business. The difference

between WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK is that WPA2-PSK provides

data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA-PSK uses Temporal

Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). WPA2-PSK offers the highest level of

security available. When “WPA2-PSK” is selected, please enter 8-64

characters as the “Pre-Shared Key”.
