Item Notes Description
By AP Numbers - The channel will be selected according to AP numbers (lower channels are
better).
By Interference - The channel will be selected according to interference. (lower
interference is better).
WiFi System Mandatory field. Specify the preferred WiFi System. The dropdown list of the WiFi system is based on IEEE
802.11 standard.
2.4G Wi-Fi can use b, g and n only or mixed with each other.
5G Wi-Fi can select a, n and ac only or mixed with each other.
Authentication Mandatory field.
Default setting:
Auto
For security, there are several authentication methods supported. Client stations should
provide the key when associate with this device.
When Open is selected, the check box named 802.1x shows up next to the dropdown list.
802.1x (Disabled by default.) - When 802.1x is enabled, the client stations will be
authenticated by a RADIUS server.
RADIUS Server IP (The default IP is 0.0.0.0)
RADIUS Server Port (The default value is 1812)
RADIUS Shared Key
When Shared is selected, the pre-shared WEP key should be set for authenticating.
When Auto is selected, the device will select Open or Shared by requesting the client
automatically.
The check box named 802.1x shows up next to the dropdown list.
802.1x (Disabled by default.) - When 802.1x is enabled, the client stations will be
authenticated by RADIUS server.
RADIUS Server IP (The default IP is 0.0.0.0)
RADIUS Server Port (The default value is 1812)
RADIUS Shared Key
When WPA-PSK is selected, the authentication uses pre-shared key instead of RADIUS
server.
When WPA2-PSK is selected, the authentication uses pre-shared key instead of RADIUS
server.
Encryption Mandatory field.
Default setting:
None
Select the desired encryption method and enter the required key(s). The available method
in the dropdown list depends on the Authentication you selected.
None - the device is open with no encryption.
WEP - Up to 4 WEP keys can be set and you have to select one as current key. The key type
can set to HEX or ASCII. If HEX is selected, the key should consist of (0 to 9) and (A to F).
If ASCII is selected, the key should consist of ASCII table.
TKIP - TKIP was proposed instead of WEP without upgrading hardware. Enter a Pre-shared
Key for it. The length of the key is from 8 to 63 characters.
AES - The newest encryption system in WiFi. This is also designed for the fast 802.11n high
bitrates schemes. Enter a Pre-Shared Key. The length of the key is from 8 to 63 characters.
We recommend that you use AES encryption for security as it is the most secure.
