the “key”. This key is requested from all devices wishing to connect to a
wireless network.

key to login to the wireless client. Keep this setting at Auto unless you
want to force a key verification before communication between the
wireless client and the WAP3205 occurs.
Select Shared Key to force the clients to provide the WEP key prior to
communication.
