To enter the settings for the selected security mode, select WLAN security settings.
WEP security settings
Select WEP as the WLAN security mode.
The wired equivalent privacy (WEP) encryption method encrypts data before it is
transmitted. Access to the network is denied to users who do not have the required WEP
keys. When the WEP security mode is in use, and your device receives a data packet not
encrypted with the WEP keys, the data is discarded.
In an ad-hoc network, all devices must use the same WEP key.
Select WLAN security settings and from the following:
WEP key in use — Select the desired WEP key.
Authentication type — Select Open or Shared.
WEP key settings — Edit the settings for the WEP key.
WEP key settings
In an ad-hoc network, all devices must use the same WEP key.
Select WLAN security settings > WEP key settings and from the following:
WEP encryption — Select the desired WEP encryption key length.
WEP key format — Select whether you want to enter the WEP key data in ASCII or
Hexadecimal format.
WEP key — Enter the WEP key data.
802.1x security settings
Select 802.1x as the WLAN security mode.
802.1x authenticates and authorises devices to access a wireless network, and prevents
access if the authorisation process fails.
Select WLAN security settings and from the following:
WPA/WPA2 — Select EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) or Pre-shared key (a
secret key used for device identification).
EAP plug-in settings — If you selected WPA/WPA2 > EAP, select which EAP plug-ins
defined in your device to use with the access point.
Pre-shared key — If you selected WPA/WPA2 > Pre-shared key, enter the shared
private key that identifies your device to the WLAN to which you connect.
