Channel No.
• In Infrastructure mode, this setting is ignored. The Network
Camera will use the Channel set on the Access Point.
• For Ad-hoc mode, select the Channel you wish to use on your
Network Camera. Other Wireless stations should use the same
setting.
• If you experience interference (shown by lost connections
and/or slow data transfers) you may need to experiment with
different channels to see which one is the best.
Security
Security System
Select the desired option, and then enter the settings for the selected
method:
• Disabled - No security is used. Anyone using the correct SSID
can connect to your network. This is default.
• WEP - The 802.11b standard. Data is encrypted before
transmission, but the encryption system is not very strong.
• WPA/WPA2 Personal - Like WEP, data is encrypted before
transmission. WPA is more secure than WEP, and should be
used if possible. WPA Personal is the version of WPA which
does NOT require a Radius Server on your LAN.
WEP
Authentication Type
Normally this can be left at the default value of "Automatic." If that
fails, select the appropriate value - "Open System" or "Shared
Key." Check your wireless card's documentation to see what
method to use.
Note: In Infrastructure mode, either setting will normally work,
since most Access Points can use both methods.
WEP Encryption
Select the WEP Encryption level:
• 64 Bit Keys (10 Hex chars)
• 128 Bit Keys (26 Hex chars)
• 64 Bit Keys (5 ASCII chars)
• 128 Bit Keys (13 ASCII chars)
Passphrase
Enter a word or group of printable characters in the Passphrase box
and click the "Generate Key" button to automatically configure the
WEP Key(s). If encryption strength is set to 64-bit, then each of the
four key fields will be populated with key values. If encryption
strength is set to 128-bit, then only the selected WEP key field will
be given a key value.
WEP Keys
• Use the radio buttons to select the default key.
• Enter the key value you wish to use. Other stations must have
the same key values.
• Keys must be entered in Hex. Hex characters are the digits (0 ~
9) and the letters A ~ F.
• Click Clear Keys to set the Keys to be blank.
