3.2.2 Setting the Encryption for AP, Station Ad-Hoc and Station Infrastructure
First, it is important to understand a range of terms. The next section will explain the main terms used here:
Authentication: Authentication is a process in which the identity, e.g. of a person is determined based on a certain characteristic.
This can be done by fi ngerprint, password or any other proof of authorisation.
Encryption: Encryption is a process in which plain text is transformed into a coded text via an encryption process (algorithm). One or
more codes can be used for this. It must also be mentioned that each individual encryption process offers one or more authentication
options.
The following encryption types are available for this mode:
64 Bit and 128 Bit WEP encryption
WPA and WPA2 encryption
You can make the settings under Wireless/Security Settings in the menu on the left for the AP, Station Ad-Hoc and Station Infrastruc-
ture mode.
Encryption is deactivated by default. However, for security reasons, we
recommend that you always use encryption.
3.2.2.1 WEP encryption
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) is a standard encryption algorithm for WLAN. It both controls the access to the network and guaran-
tees the integrity of the data. This method is considered vulnerable due to a range of weaknesses.
First select whether you want to use 64 bit or
128 bit encryption. 128 bit encryption offers
greater security. Then select either Hex
(characters from 0-9 and a-f) or ASCII (any cha-
racter) for the Key Format. This also determines
the length of the key.
Default Tx Key allows you to select one of
four preset keys. Select Key 1, for example,
and enter your key of choice with the required
length.
Examples:
64 bit Hex (10 characters) = 231074a6ef
64 bit ASCII (5 characters) = j31n.
128 bit Hex (26 characters) = 231074a6b9773ce
43f91a5bef3
128 bit ASCII (13 characters) = urlaub2006.+0
Click Apply to save your settings. You must then restart the router for the settings to take effect. To do so, click Apply in the next
window. The wireless network with encryption is available after you restart.
