– This includes Open/ Shared m ode.
Passphrase- Som e Access Points can use passphrase input inst ead of WEP keys.
The passphrase autom atically generates WEP keys based on t he ent ered
passphrase. The prim ary reason for using passphr ase is t o avoid using t he long and
difficult t o rem em ber WEP keys. But please rem em ber that WEP keys are t he ones
that are used for packet encrypt ion. Passphrase is only used to save tim e and is not
the actual key. I f a passphrase is entered, the keys are generated in real tim e
Use ASCII – To input your key in ASCI I (A-Z, 0-9, etc) select t his box then ent er the
key below. You cannot use a Passphrase when you are using ASCI I input.
Transmit Key- There are 4 WEP Keys available t o use. By sett ing t he Transm it Key,
we can specify which key t o use t o encrypt t he wireless packets.
Key 1
- This is 1
st WEP key usable for packet encrypt ion.
Key 2
- This is 2nd WEP key usable for packet encryption
Key 3
- This is 3
rd
WEP key usable for packet encryption.
Key 4
- This is 4
th
WEP key usable for packet encryption.
3.) Authentication : WPA-PSK
This is another pre-shared key encryption m et hod. I n
order to use t his m ethod, you need the passphrase used by the Access Point that
you want t o connect to. Packets are encrypted based on t his passphrase.
Encryption Status- TKI P and AES are t he actual encrypt ion algorit hm s
