The Configuration Tab contains several fields where operating parameters of the driver can be viewed or changed. Changes to any of the parameters in this panel can be applied to the driver without resetting the wireless LAN card(see Figure 3-4). Figure 3-4.
3-4. Encryption To prevent unauthorized user to access the data on wireless stations, the Wireless LAN Card offers a highly secure data encryption, known as WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). If you require high security in transmission, go to the Encryption tab and set it up as follows(see Figure 3-5).
configuration settings, such as the Fragmentation Threshold, and RTS/CTS Threshold (see Figure 3-6). Figure 3-6 shows the default configuration for the advanced settings. Note: In order to enable the Fragmentation and the RTS/CTS Threshold parameters move the slide bar with your mouse and then use the right and left arrow keys of your keyboard in order to select an exact number.
