Select [Configuration] from the main

The screen displays the configuration
screen. Follow the instruction below to
configure.
Select your time zone or the closest
region. Click Next to continue.
Now you are to set up your wireless interface. First, give an SSID (Service Set
Identifier), which is a unique identifier attached to packets sent over WLANs. This
identifier emulates a password when a wireless device attempts communication on
the WLAN. Because an SSID distinguishes WLANs from each other, access points
and wireless devices trying to connect to a WLAN must use the same SSID.
If you want to protect transmitted data, select a middle or high Security Level.
Medium : only users with the same WEP key are to connect to this access point
and to transmit data using 64bits or 128bits WEP key encryption.
High: only users with the same WPA pre-shared key are to connect to this access
point and to transmit data using TKIP encryption.
The ASUS wireless router configuration page features a convenient
approach to setup the WEP Keys: with only a few taps on your keyboard
to define the Passphrase, the system will automatically generate four
strings of WEP Keys. For ASUS wireless adaptor users, it is no longer
necessary to input long and complicated WEP Keys when connecting the
router with the wireless client; the Passphrase provides an easy way for
setting up your wireless environment!
For example, if we input
select WEP-64bits
encryption mode, input
111111 as Passphrase,
then the following WEP
Keys are generated as
shown in the right picture.
Record the Passphrase
and the WEP keys on your
notebook, then click Next.
