DESCRIPTION
Enter a descriptive name (up to 32 printable 7-bit ASCII characters) for the
wireless LAN.
If you change this field on the ZyXEL Device, make sure all wireless stations
use the same Name (SSID) in order to access the network.
To manually set the ZyXEL Device to use a channel, select a channel from the
drop-down list box. Open the Channel Usage screen to make sure the
channel is not already used by another AP or independent peer-to-peer
wireless network.
To have the ZyXEL Device automatically select a channel, click Scan instead.
Click this button to have the ZyXEL Device automatically scan for and select a
channel with the least interference.
Select Disable allows all wireless computers to communicate with the access
points without any data encryption.
Select 64-bit WEP or 128-bit WEP to allow data encryption.
Select this option in order to enter ASCII characters as the WEP keys.
Select this option to enter hexadecimal characters as the WEP keys.
The preceding 0x is entered automatically.
The WEP keys are used to encrypt data. Both the ZyXEL Device and the
wireless stations must use the same WEP key for data transmission.
If you chose 64-bit WEP, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10
hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F").
If you chose 128-bit WEP, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal
characters ("0-9", "A-F").
You must configure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one
time. The default key is key 1.
