Parameter Description
interferenceinordertoenhancewirelessperformance.
ChannelWidth
Itspecifiesthefrequencywidthofthechanneloftherouter.Thedefaultis
recommended.
SSID Itspecifiesthenameofthewirelessnetworkoftherouter.
EncryptionMode
EncryptionTypeinvolveshowyourcommunicationissecuredandaffectsyour
networksecurity.TheroutersupportsNone,WEPandWAPPersonal.
 None:Itindicatesthatthewirelessnetworkisnotencrypted.
 WEP:WiredEquivalentPrivacy(WEP)usesastatickeytoencryptalldata
exchanges,andensuresthatawirelessLANhasthesamelevelofsecurityasawired
LAN.Underthismode,youneedtosettheAuthenticationModeandtheWEP
DefaultKey.
 WAPPersonal:Itindicatesanotherencryptionmodefordataexchange.Underthis
mode,youneedtosetWAPMode,CipherTypeandPre‐sharedkey.
Authentication
Method
TheavailableauthenticationmodesincludeOpenSystemandSharedKey.
 OpenSystem:ItspecifiesthatauthenticationisnotrequirediftheEncryptionType
isWEP.Inthiscase,awirelessclientcanconnecttotherouterwithoutbeing
authenticated,andthedataexchangedbetweenthemisencryptedinWEPsecurity
mode.
 SharedKey:ItspecifiesthatauthenticationisnotrequirediftheEncryptionTypeis
WEP.Inthiscase,a wirelessclientcanconnecttotherouterwithoutbeing
authenticated,andthedataexchangedbetweenthemisencryptedinWEPsecurity
mode.
WEPEncryption
Length
Itspecifiesthelengthofthekeythatyousetforthewirelessnetwork.
WEPDefaultKey
ItspecifiesthedefaultWEPkeyfortheOpenSystemandSharedKeyencryptiontypes.
Forexample,ifthedefaultkeyissettoWEPkey2,awirelessclientcanconnecttothe
routeronlywithWEPkey2.
TherouterprovidestwoWEPkeytypes:
ASCIIandHex.
 ASCII:Itallows5or13ASCIIcharactersinaWEPkey.
 Hex:Itallows10or26hexadecimalcharactersinaWEPkey.
WPAMode
 WPA:ItindicatesthattherouterworksintheWPAsecuritymode.
 WPA2:ItindicatesthattherouterworksintheWPA2securitymode.
 Auto(WPAorWPA2):ItindicatesthattherouterworksintheAuto(WPAorWPA2)
securitymode,andwirelessclientsadoptingtheWPAorWPA2securitymodecan
connecttotherouter.
CipherType
 AES:ItisshortforAdvancedEncryptionStandard.Ifthisencryptionalgorithmis
