3-10 MonarchNet2 Operating Instructions
Changing Wireless Settings
Only configure the settings required for your network/printer.
1. Click the Wireless tab to configure the wireless network (802.11b/g) settings.
2. Set the Mode: Ad-Hoc or infrastructure. In Ad-Hoc mode, you do not need an access
point. Infrastructure mode requires an access point to communicate.
3. Set the SSID. The SSID is a unique identifier that must match for all nodes on a
subnetwork to communicate with each other.
4. Select the Radio type: 802.11b or 802.11b/g.
5. Set the Ad-Hoc channel: 1 to 11. All devices must be on the same channel to
communicate.
6. Set the Speed: 1, 2, 5.5, 11, 12, 18, 24, 36, 48, or 54 (megabits per second).
7. Set the International Roaming: Disable, Strict, or Flexible.
8. Set the Regulatory Domain, which is the country of use.
9. Set the AP Density: Low, Medium, or High. If the communication quality (transmit
rate) between devices on a network drops below a certain level, the devices scan for
another access point in the area offering better transmit rates, etc.
10. Set the Encryption Mode: Disable, 64 BIT Encryption, 128 BIT Encryption, WPA,
WPA2, WPA2-WPA. WPA2-WPA works as either WPA2 or WPA. The encryption
mode determines the algorithm used to encrypt messages.
11. Set the Authentication Type: Open, Shared, TLS, TTLS, LEAP, PEAP, EAP-FAST,
or PSK. The authentication type specifies how users are identified and verified on a
network. These options vary depending on what was selected as the Encryption
Mode.
See “Basic Security Configurations” for more information.
12. Enable WPA Group Key to use a group key for data link encryption.
13. Enter the maximum number of Authentication Attempts.
