ASUS Wireless "WL-HDD" User’s Manual 33
Chapter 3 - Software Configuration
Passphrase
If you select TKIP only or AES only as the Encryption method, this field will
be used as a password for the encryption process. A password with 8 to 63
characters is required. If you select WEP-64 bits or WEP-128 bits as the
Encryption method, this field will be used to generate four WEP keys
automatically. A WEP key is either 10 or 26 hexadecimal digits based on whether
you select 64 bit or 128 bit in the WEP pull-down menu. Type a combination
of up to 64 letters, numbers, or symbols in this field, which will be used to
generate the four WEP keys. If you want to type in the keys manually, leave
this field blank. The ASUS WLAN family of products uses the same algorithm
to generate the keys so that all the products can use the same WEP key.
WEP Key
At most four WEP keys can be set. A WEP key is either 10 or 26 hexadecimal
digits (0~9, a~f, and A~F) based on whether you select 64 bit or 128 bit in
the WEP pull-down menu. The ASUS Wireless "WL-HDD" and ALL of its
wireless clients MUST have the same default key.
Default Key
The Default Key field lets you specify which of the four encryption keys you
use to transmit data on your wireless LAN. As long as the ASUS Wireless
"WL-HDD" or a wireless mobile client with which you are communicating
has the same key in the same position, you can use any of the keys as the
default key. If the ASUS Wireless "WL-HDD" and ALL of its wireless clients
use the same four WEP keys, select key rotation to maximize security.
Otherwise, choose one key in common as the default key.
Hide SSID
By default, No is selected so that wireless mobile users can see your ASUS
Wireless WL-HDD’s SSID and join the network. If Yes is selected, your ASUS
Wireless "WL-HDD" will not show in site surveys by wireless mobile clients
and they will have to manually enter your device’s SSID. If you want to restrict
access to your ASUS Wireless WL-HDD, this is a simple way to do it.
Basic Rate Set
This field indicates the basic rates that wireless clients must support. Use 1
& 2 Mbps only when backward compatibility is needed for some older
wireless LAN cards with a maximum bit rate of 2 Mbps.
WPA-PSK
This field specifies the time interval after which the WPA group key is changed
in seconds. 0 means no periodic key-change is required.
Note: This function saves users from having to remember their
passwords and is compatible for all ASUS WLAN products. How-
ever, this is not as secure as the manual assignment of the keys.
