    DRG600-WiFi is WPA-PSK, so your wireless station should also have WPA-PSK enabled, and the key must match. • If the DRG600-WiFi's Wireless screen is set to Allow Wireless Access by Wireless Stations only, then each of your Wireless stations must have been selected, or access will be blocked.

    About Wireless LANs This chapter provides some background information about using Wireless LANs (WLANs). Modes Wireless LANs can work in either of two (2) modes: • Ad-hoc • Infrastructure Ad hoc Mode Ad-hoc mode does not require an Access Point or a wired (Ethernet) LAN. Wireless Stations (e.g. notebook PCs with wireless cards) communicate directly with each other.

    Points do not have or require Roaming capabilities.) Channels The Wireless Channel sets the radio frequency used for communication. Access Points use a fixed Channel. You can select the Channel used. This allows you to choose a Channel which provides the least interference and best performance. In the USA and Canada, 11 channels are available. If using multiple Access Points, it is better if adjacent Access Points use different Channels to reduce interference.

    WPA PSK WPA-PSK is another standard for encrypting data before it is transmitted. This is a later standard than WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), and provides greater security for your data. Data is encrypted using a 256Bit key which is automatically generated and changed often. If all your Wireless stations support WPA-PSK, you should use this instead of WEP.
