the Generate Keys button. You can also enter the keys directly. These keys must match the
other wireless stations.
Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4. If using WEP, select the key to be used as the default key.
Data transmissions are always encrypted using the default key. The other keys can only be
used to decrypt received data.
WPA Preshared Key Passphrase. If using WPA-PSK, enter the passphrase here. All
wireless stations must use the same passphrase (network key). The network key must be
from 8 to 63 characters in length.
Wireless Client Security Separation. If enabled, the associated wireless clients will not be
able to communicate with each other. (This feature is intended for hotspots and other public
access situations.) The default is disabled.
