When entering text in the Confi gurator window, use only the characters shown
in the keyboard area of the illustration for “Text Entry in the Network Settings Menu”
on page 14 of the WT-1 User’s Manual or page 26 of the WT-2 User’s Manual.
Note:
The “Wireless” Tab: Wireless Settings
SSID: Enter the BSS- or ESS-ID for the wireless LAN adapter or access point.
Communication mode: Choose from Infrastructure and Ad-hoc.
• Infrastructure: Choose when connecting to the wireless network via an access
point. The channel is set automatically and can not be selected from the Channel
menu.
• Ad-hoc: Choose for direct peer-to-peer connection to a host. When using an ad-hoc
connection, select a Channel that matches that used by the wireless LAN adapter.
Use encryption (WEP) : To enable encryption, check this option and select the type
of encryption (ASCII, Base 16, or TKIP), then enter the encryption key in the WEP key
text box. ASCII and TKIP keys use standard letters and numbers, while base-16 (hexa-
decimal) keys use only the numbers 0–9 and the letters “A–F”. The length of ASCII and
base-16 keys depends on the type of encryption used: 5 ASCII or 13 hexadecimal char-
acters are required for 40- and 64-bit encryption, 10 ASCII or 26 hexadecimal characters
for 128-bit encryption. TKIP keys are available only with the WT-2 and may be 8 to 64
characters long. If Shared key is selected, the WT-1 will enable shared-key verifi cation
to confi rm that the other devices in the network share the same key (the WT-2 auto-
matically selects the type of verifi cation appropriate to the network).
