Channel:
It shows radio channel numbers that used for Wireless
LAN networking. In Ad-Hoc mode stations, each station
must have the same channel numbers and SSID. In
Infrastructure mode, the 2.4GHz 802.11n MPCI Module will
automatically detect the channel number of the Access
Point.
Security: the setting of the Network Encryption. This function
is used to protect wireless communication from eavesdropping.
A secondary function of encryption is to prevent unauthorized
access to a wireless network, and it can be achieved by using the
Encryption function.
Encryption Mode:
There are two kinds of encryption mode, WEP encryption
and WPA-PSK.Click the Enable Encryption to activate the
security of the 2.4GHz 802.11n MPCI Module.
WEP-Key: WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) relies on a
secret key that is shared between a mobile station and a base
station (Access Point).
WEP-Passphrase: the Passphrase in the dialog box helps
you to create a group of WEP key in the Key Setting.
Authentication Mode:
Open System: with the same WEP key between the stations,
the stations don't need to be authenticated, and this algorithm
was set to default.
Shared Key: with the same WEP key between the stations
in this Authentication algorithm, this type will use packets
with encryption by transferring a challenge text which will
be acknowledge by both side of the stations. In order to
choose which authentication algorithm will be used, you
must know which one the station supports this algorithm
first.
It is recommended to select "Auto" if you are not familiar with
