WLAN: Wireless Local Area Networks 6 WLAN: Wireless Local Area Networks WLAN is a radio technology that allows Ethernet networks and access to the Internet to be provided without cable connections. This allows multiple users to share one wireless Internet connection. A notebook and a WLAN adapter is all you need for an Internet connection at locations with public WLAN access points, for instance at airports. Standards The WLAN standards IEEE 802.11b, IEEE 802.11g and IEEE 802.
Security Security Security is of utmost importance within radio networks. Radio signals can also be received outside of office or residential spaces and abused for criminal purposes. Therefore it is important that no unauthorized users can register in a WLAN to use its Internet access or shared network resources. FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN includes settings on various levels that contribute to the security of your WLAN and thus to the security of your computers.
Security The WPA password used may be 8 to 63 characters in length. For increased security, however, the password should be at least 20 characters long. Use numerals, letters and special characters and combine capitals and lower-case letters. In FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN, encryption with WEP is the default setting. It is advisable to change the preconfigured WLAN settings as soon as possible. Changes to the settings can be configured on the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN user interface.
Frequency Range Password Protection Access to the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN user interface can be protected by means of a password. When password protection is enabled, the FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN settings are protected from unauthorized access. Use unusual character strings as passwords. Avoid birthdays or names. WLAN Radio Network Name (SSID) The factory settings of FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN include a value of “FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7050” preset for the SSID (Service Set Identifier). Change the SSID as soon as possible.
