User Manual

Basic_Wireless

The wireless section is used to configure the wireless settings for your router. Note that changes made

in this section may also need to be duplicated on wireless clients that you want to connect to your

wireless network.

To protect your privacy, use the wireless security mode to configure the wireless security features.

This device supports three wireless security modes including: WEP, WPA-Personal, and

WPA-Enterprise. WEP is the original wireless encryption standard. WPA-Enterprise provides a higher

level of security. WPA-Personal does not require an authentication server. The WPA-Enterprise option

does require a RADIUS authentication server.

Enable Wireless

This indicates the wireless operating status. The wireless can be turned on or off by the slide

switch at the back panel. When the wireless is enabled, the following parameters are in effect.

Wireless Network Name

When you are browsing for available wireless networks, this is the name that will appear in the

list (unless Visibility Status is set to Invisible, see below). This name is also referred to as the

SSID. For security purposes, it is highly recommended to change from the pre-configured

network name.

Enable Auto Channel Scan

If you select this option, the router automatically finds the channel with least interference and

uses that channel for wireless networking. If you disable this option, the router uses the

channel that you specify with the following Wireless Channel option.
