Chapter 4: Configuration

ASUS Passphrase

Select “WEP-64bits” or “WEP-128bits” in the Encryption field, and the Access

Point generates four WEP keys automatically. A combination of up to 64 letters,

numbers, or symbols is required. Alternatively, leave this field blank and type in

four WEP keys manually.
WEP-64bit key: 10 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F)
WEP-128bit key: 26 hexadecimal digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F)

The ASUS WLAN family of products uses the same algorithm to generate WEP

keys. It eliminates the need for users to remember passwords and maintains

compatibility between products. But, this method to generate WEP keys is not

as secure as manual assignment.

Network Rotation Key Interval

This field specifies the time interval (in seconds) after which a WPA group key is

changed. Enter ‘0’ (zero) to indicate that a periodic key-change is not required.

WPS

Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) provides easy and secure establishment of a

wireless network. You can configure WPS here via the PIN code method.
WPS supports Open system, WPA-Personal, and WPA2-Personal authentication

methods, but does not support Shared Key.

Notes:

• To remove the PIN code, press the Restore button at the bottom of the device.

• Use the WPS button in Router mode, and WPS button and PIN code method on 3G sharing

mode. Access Point (AP), Hotspot, Repeater and Ethernet Adapter modes do not support the

WPS function. For more details on the operation modes, refer to section 4.2 Operation modes.
