Hawking Technology HWC54D - Manual (Page 17)

Parameter Description
Data Encryption WEP – In WPA or WPA-PSK mode, WEP is also able to be the
encryption method for the transmission data.
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the
temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message
transmitted over a network.) This insures much greater security
than the standard WEP security.
AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of
security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most
advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the
wireless network.
Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption
method to ensure the communication.
3.3 Link Status
From the “Link Status” option, you can view all the information of the network you are connecting to.
You can use this tool in while at the same time repositioning the Hi-Gain antenna to find the optimal
location for antenna placement.
Parameter Description
Status Display the SSID and MAC ID of the network the card is
connecting to.
Current Channel Display the number of the radio channel and the frequency used
