7.3 Wireless Security
The screen varies depending on what you select in the Security Mode field.
7.3.1 No Security
Select No Security to allow wireless clients to communicate with the access points without any data
encryption.
Channel Width Select the wireless channel width used by LTE Device.
A standard 20MHz channel offers transfer speeds of up to 144Mbps (2.4GHz) whereas a 40MHz
channel uses two standard channels and offers speeds of up to 300Mbps (2.4GHz).
Because not all devices support 40 MHz channels, select Auto 20/40MHz to allow the LTE
Device to adjust the channel bandwidth automatically.
40MHz (channel bonding or dual channel) bonds two adjacent radio channels to increase
throughput. The wireless clients must also support 40 MHz. It is often better to use the 20 MHz
setting in a location where the environment hinders the wireless signal.
Select 20MHz if you want to lessen radio interference with other wireless devices in your
neighborhood or the wireless clients do not support channel bonding.
802.11 Mode You can select from the following:
• 802.11b: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate
with the LTE Device. In this mode, all wireless devices can only transmit at the data rates
supported by IEEE 802.11b.
• 802.11g: allows IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate with the Device. IEEE
802.11b compliant WLAN devices can associate with the LTE Device only when they use
the short preamble type.
• 802.11bg: allows either IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g compliant WLAN devices to associate
with the LTE Device. The LTE Device adjusts the transmission rate automatically according
to the wireless standard supported by the wireless devices.
• 802.11n: allows IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate with the LTE Device. This
can increase transmission rates, although IEEE 802.11b or IEEE 802.11g clients will not be
able to connect to the LTE Device.
• 802.11gn: allows either IEEE 802.11g or IEEE 802.11n compliant WLAN devices to associate
with the LTE Device. The transmission rate of your LTE Device might be reduced.
• 802.11bgn: allows IEEE802.11b, IEEE802.11g and IEEE802.11n compliant WLAN devices to
associate with the LTE Device. The transmission rate of your LTE Device might be reduced.
Security
Security Mode Select Static WEP, WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK or WPA2 to add security on this wireless network.
The wireless clients which want to associate to this network must have same wireless security
settings as this device. After you select to use a security, additional options appears in this
screen. See Section 7.3 on page 73 for detailed information on different security modes. Or
you can select No Security to allow any client to associate this network without
authentication.
Note: If the WPS function is enabled (default), only No Security and WPA2-PSK are
available in this field.
Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the LTE Device.
Cancel Click Cancel to reload the previous configuration for this screen.
