[Basic setup] page
Item Explanation
[Network Name (ESSID)]
Specifies the name of the logical network configured by the
access point. The same setting item is provided on the station
that runs in infrastructure mode. The same name as the access
point to be connected to must be specified in the setting item.
Specify the name with up to 32 ASCII characters.
The default is MAGNIA.
[Don’t accept a station
with the network name
"ANY"]
Specifies whether to accept a connection request from a network
having a special “network name (ESSID).”
If the check box is not selected, a station having network name
ANY or a null character can be connected.
If the check box is selected, a station can be connected only when
the network name matches.
The check box is cleared by default.
[Access Point Name]
Specifies the name to identify the access point.
Specify the name with up to 32 ASCII characters.
The default is MAGNIA Software AP.
[Channel Number]
Specifies the channel number to be used for communication.
If an adjacent access point uses the same channel number, two
access points interfere with each other, resulting in deteriorated
throughputs. If so, change the number of either channel.
The default is 10.
[Enable WEP]
WEP is short for Wired Equivalent Privacy. This function encrypts
communication data for improved security.
When this check box is selected, you must select one of
cryptographic keys 1 to 4 explained next and specify the
cryptographic key in the edit box.
A station that does not use WEP or whose key is inconsistent
cannot be connected to the access point.
The check box is selected by default.
[Keys 1 to 4]
Select one of the keys 1 to 4 and specify the WEP cryptographic
key.
Use an ASCII character string or hexadecimal number. Key
length must be 5 or 13 bytes. (The max key length depends on
the card.)
All keys are set to “WEP00” by default.
[Enable MAC address
filtering]
Specifies whether to enable access restraints on wireless LAN
stations by registering permissible MAC addresses.
This check is selected by default.
MAC address input field Enter the MAC address. The input format is
XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX(enter 0 to 9 or A to F in X).
