Parameter
Authentication Type
Authentication Type
This setting is only available for Ad Hoc mode. Select the number of the
radio channel used for the networking. The channel setting should be the
same with the network you are connecting to.
Description
This setting has to be consistent with the wireless networks that the card
intends to connect.
Open – No authentication is needed among the wireless network.
Shared – Only wireless devices using a shared key (WEP Key identified) are
allowed to connecting each other.
LEAP – LEAP is a pre-EAP, Cisco-proprietary protocol, with many of the
features of EAP protocols. Cisco controls the ability of other vendors to
implement this protocol, so it should be selected for use only when limited
vendor choice for client, access-point, and server products is not a concern.
When you have set up LEAP authentication, you have to enter the user name
and password of
your computer.
