Wireless Channel

To transmit and receive data, the Residential Gateway-I uses a frequency
channel.

If neighboring wireless networks are using the same channel, it is advisable
to have your Residential Gateway-I network using a different one.

Encryption Key

Communication within your network is only possible to wireless computers
using the same Encryption Key.

This is what the Residential Gateway-I uses to enable Data Security on your
wireless network.

The default value of the Encryption Key equals the 5 last (most right)
characters of the Network Name. To prevent any access to your network
without permission, it is strongly advised to change the default encryption
key value.
