6.VARIOUS FUNCTIONS
WIRELESS SETTING
You can configure the Wireless LAN Module if it is installed.
Select Infrastructure Mode or Ad Hoc Mode to specify the security mode.
If you do not set no security, anyone knows how the SSID can connect to the wireless network.
Therefore, it is recommended to set the security if it is possible.
Once the WIRELESS SETTING has been set up, exit from USER FUNCTIONS menu by pressing
[CANCEL] or [USER FUNCTIONS] button. When "APPLY AND REBOOT?" message appears, select
"YES", and then press [OK]. The equipment is automatically rebooted and the WIRELESS SETTING is
applied.
WPS
WPS is a standard to allow easy wireless LAN configurations. This equipment supports Push Button
Configuration and PIN methods.
The Push Button Configuration method completes the configuration by transmitting the ESSID and
encryption key to the wireless LAN device as you press the button on the Access Point.
Whereas the PIN method completes the configuration by transmitting the ESSID and encryption key to the
wireless LAN device as you register the PIN generated by the wireless LAN device to the Access Point.
WPA2-PSK, WPA2/WPA-PSK
WPA2 and WPA2/WPA-PSK are authentication methods using the PSK (Pre-Shared Key) between the
Access Point and other wireless devices.
To access the wireless network using the WPA2-PSK or WPA2/WPA-PSK authentication, the same PSK
passphrase must be assigned in both the Access Point and other wireless devices. If the PSKs are same
between the Access Point and other wireless devices, the Access Point allows them to access the wireless
network through the Access Point.
WEP
WEP is a data encryption method using the WEP key between the Access Point and other wireless
devices.
WEP is less secure compared with WPA2 and WPA2/WPA-PSK. If the wireless network is configured in
the Infrastructure Mode and the Access Point supports WPA2-PSK or WPA2/WPA-PSK, it is
recommended to use WPA2-PSK or WPA2/WPA-PSK rather than WEP.
