After setting the connection type, you are
2
to set up your wireless interface,. First, give
an SSID (Service Set Identifier), which is a
unique identifier attached to packets sent
over WLANs. This identifier emulates a
password when a wireless device attempts
communication on the WLAN. Because
an SSID distinguishes WLANs from each
other, access points and wireless devices
trying to connect to a WLAN must use the same SSID.
Also, if you want to protect transmitted data, select a middle or high Security Level.
3
Medium : only users with the same WEP key are to connect to this access point and
to transmit data using 64bits or 128bits WEP key encryption.
High: only users with the same WPA pre-shared key are to connect to this access
point and to transmit data using TKIP encryption.
The ASUS wireless router configuration page features a convienient approach to
setup the WEP Keys: with only a few taps on your keyboard to define the Passphrase,
the system will automatically generate four strings of WEP Keys. For ASUS wireless
adaptor users, it is no longer necessary to input long and complicated WEP Keys
when connecting the router with the wireless client; the Passphrase provides an easy
way for setting up your wireless environment!
For example, if we input select WEP-
64bits encryption mode, input 11111 as
Passphrase, then the following WEP Keys
are generated as shown in the right picture.
Record the Passphrase and the WEP keys
on your notebook, then click Save.
Click Finish to continue. You are prompted
4
to save the settings. Click Save&Restart
to save the settings to the ASUS Wireless
Router and enable the new settings.
Next we are to setup encrypted wireless connection for wireless router and wireless
5
client. If you have installed ASUS wireless adaptor as well as the utility, click Start
-> Programes -> ASUS Utility -> WLAN Card -> One Touch Wizard to open the
connection setup utility on the client end.
