v1.0 March 2009
See the document “Wireless Networking Basics” for a full explanation of each of these

document on the NETGEAR website is in

5. Wireless Client Security Separation is set to No (disabled) by default. If this feature is
enabled, associated wireless clients will not be able to communicate with each other. (This
feature is intended for hotspots and other public access situations.
6. Click Apply to save your settings.
Configuring WPA with RADIUS
Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on the client.
Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 or later do include the client software that
supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA.
Consult the product document for your wireless adapter and WPA client software for instructions
on configuring WPA settings.
To configure WPA:
1. Select Configuration > Security > Advanced > RADIUS Server Settings. The RADIUS
Server Settings screen displays.
2. Enter the RADIUS server settings as shown in “Configuring the RADIUS Server Settings” on
page 2-27.
3. Click Apply to save your RADIUS server settings.
Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure WEP settings, you will be
disconnected when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless adapter to match
the new settings or access the wireless access point from a wired computer to
make any further changes.
