Installation
• Authentication & Encryption
It allows you to configure the setting of network authentication and data encryption.
You can specify the authentication type. “Both” allows wireless client devices access your
gateway no matter with shared key or not. “Share key only” only allows devices with same
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) key to access your wireless gateway. “802.1X” and “WPA”
require you to type in Radius server IP and server key. Please check with your Network
Administrator for related information. “WPA-PSK” needs a pre-shared key to be set on your
wireless gateway and all wireless client devices. For WPA configuration in details, please refer
to “WPA and WPA-PSK Configuration Guide” at later part of the manual.
For 64-bit WEP key, it should be five ASCII characters (a-z and 0-9, for example: gear56) or
ten hexadecimal digits in length (a through f, and 0 through 9, for example: 2af30bc9d5); for
128 bit WEP key, the length will be 13 characters for ASCII or 26 digits for Hexadecimal.
• Associated Client List
It displays information of stations that are currently associated to your wireless gateway. You
can check who are linking to your network, for security and activity monitoring purposes.
