4.3 Secure Wireless Network
AW5500C is designed to provide you security support when building a network. We
recommend using WPA2-PSK with AES as a minimum when securing your network; also
remember to set it at 802.11n for a full speed performance. For more information on this and
more please read Security Settings .
4.4 Wireless Settings
Wireless Settings includes the basic Wi-Fi settings and wireless security. There are however,
some concepts to be mentioned before going one step forward on the wireless settings. As
you know, 802.11 is a set of standards for WLAN communication at the 2.4, 3.6 and 5 GHz
frequencies. The AW5500C works only with the 2.4GHz. It follows the below mentioned
standards:
 802.11b; the first of the standards to be created; an 11 Mbps (4~5 Mbps net throughput),
2.4 GHz signaling standard. Although it performs much better than traditional dial-up
networking, its performance is still significantly less than 802.11a and other, newer
standards.
