will be able to configure the corresponding function.
5.2.1 Basic Wireless Settings
Choose menu “Wireless→Wireless Basics”, you can configure the basic settings
for the wireless network on this page.
Name（SSID）：Also called the SSID. Enter a value of up to 32 characters. The same
name must be assigned to all wireless devices in your network .
Band Width :Select the channel width from the drop-down list. The default setting is
40MHz in Both Bands, which can adjust the channel width for your clients automatically.
Channel:This field determines which operating frequency will be used. The default
channel is set to Auto, so the AP will choose the best channel automatically. It is not
necessary to change the wireless channel unless you notice interference problems with
another nearby access point.
SSID Broadcast: When wireless clients survey the local area for wireless networks to
associate with, they will detect the SSID broadcast by the Router. If you select the Enable
SSID Broadcast checkbox, the Wireless Router will broadcast its name (SSID) on the air.

Security Option: You can configure the security settings of your wireless network. There are
six wireless security modes supported by the Router: WEP,802.1X,WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2,
WPA2-PSK. Different item leads different web page settings. Please read the following
information carefully:
Done :If you do not want to use wireless security, check this radio button. But it’s strongly
recommended to choose one of the following modes to enable security.
WEP open and WEP shared —WEP is an encryption scheme that is used to protect user’s
wireless data communications. WEP uses a combination of 64-bit keys or 128-bit keys to
provide access control to user’s network and encryption security for every data transmission.
To decode a data transmission, each wireless client on the network must use an identical
64-bit or 128-bit key. WEP is an older wireless encryption method that is not as hard to
break as the more-recent WPA.
802.1x —In 802.1x (also known as RADIUS), a separate machine called an authentication
server receives a user ID and password. It grants or denies access based on whether the ID
and password match any entries in its account list. User can optionally enable WEP
encryption with this option. Because it requires a separate machine acting as the
authentication server, 802.1x is most often used in business environments.
WPA —WPA is a more recent encryption method that addresses many of the weaknesses in
WEP. Any client capable of WPA encryption should use it instead of WEP.
WPA (PSK) —This is WPA encryption combined with a pre-shared key (PSK), which is a text
string known only to the gateway and authorized wireless clients. The gateway rejects the
login if the client's PSK does not match.
WPA2 —WPA2 is a more advanced encryption method than WPA. Because it is a more
recent standard, some of user’s wireless devices might not be able to use it.
WPA2 (PSK) —This option uses WPA2 with a pre-shared key.
WPA2 and WPA —This option supports WPA2/WPA encryption for devices capable of one
or the other standard. The gateway automatically detects whether a particular device can
use WPA2 or WPA.
WPA2 AND WPA (PSK) —This has WPA2 or WPA encryption based on client abilities, as well
as a pre-shared key.
