WEP Protection Status: Select On from the drop-down list to enable the WEP for added security. When the
terminal's WLAN interface is enabled, the WLAN icon is either green (WEP is enabled) or red (WEP is not
enabled). When the icon is red, any computer with a WLAN interface can detect the terminal's WLAN SSID, and
connect to it.
Encryption Level: 64 or 128 bit WEP encryption can be enabled.
WEP Key: You can define the WEP key or use the default WEP key, which is formulated using the IMEI number
of the terminal.
•
Hexadecimal 128-bit: Requires 26 characters. Recommended
•
Hexadecimal 64-bit: Requires 10 characters
Note: If WEP is enabled, you must provide other WLAN users with the WEP key in order for them to connect
to the terminal.
SSID Broadcast: For added security you can choose not to broadcast your SSID.
MAC Filtering: For added security, click ENABLE from the drop-down list, and then you can define up to 10
MAC addresses that are allowed to connect to your WLAN. Note: To determine the MAC address of a PC, go
to a DoS prompt and type ipconfig/all. For Mac OS X, under the Apple Menu go to System Preferences ->
Network and Show Airport. The Airport Id is the MAC address. Alternatively, go to About this Mac -> More Info
-> network, and select Airport.
