Please remember:
If the PC you are using to configure the Gigaset WLAN Repeater has a wireless con-
nection, make sure you enter it in the MAC filter table before activating the MAC
address filter. Otherwise you will no longer have any access to the configuration pro-
gram. If you have accidentally denied access to the Gigaset WLAN Repeater for all PCs,
you will have to connect the PC you are using for configuration to the Gigaset WLAN
Repeater with an Ethernet cable so that you can permit wireless access again.
WPA This option is only available in Access point mode.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) offers a high level of security for your wireless
network. You should use WPA to encrypt data transfer if all the devices on your
network support WPA.
WEP WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a security protocol that protects your wire-
less network against unauthorised persons.
