Easy Config
This page allows you to change the setting for EasyConfig. Use this feature could let your
wireless client automatically synchronize its setting and connect to the AP Router in a minute
with any hassle.
Below describes what Realtek EasyConfig is and how to use it in Realtek WLAN AP Router
and PCI/mini-PCI/Card bus/USB client adapter.
By using EasyConfig, AP and client will auto-negotiate the setting for SSID and WPA/WPA2
PSK (Pre-Shared Key), and then the client will associate to AP automatically with WPA/WPA2
security enabled. After AP has been successfully configured with an EasyConfig client, AP will
use and deliver the same setting to any client requesting for EasyConfig hereafter. Thus, it will
make every EasyConfig client could communicate to AP by sharing the same SSID and PSK.
Currently WLAN AP could support wlan security for WPA-TKIP and WPA2-AES (The
supported capability could be configurable in AP config file, the config detail will be described
in the following section). When do EasyConfig, the client will propose its request algorithm
(WPA-TKIP or WPA2-AES), and AP will choose which encryption algorithm will be adopted by
checking the client request and its own capability. If AP is configured to support WPA-TKIP
and WPA2-AES, it will accept any EasyConfig client request for WPA-TKIP or WPA2-AES,
and both WPA-TKIP and WPA2-AES encryption algorithms could be used concurrently in AP.
