Manually Configuring Your Wireless Security
To set up wireless security, you can either manually configure it in the Wireless Settings screen, or
you can use Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) to automatically set the SSID and implement
WPA/WPA2 security (see
and Security" on page
Note: If you use a wireless computer to configure wireless security settings, you will be
disconnected when you click Apply. Reconfigure your wireless computer to match
the new settings, or access the modem router from a wired computer to make fur-
ther changes.
Configuring WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES) Security
A high-performance client such as the NETGEAR WN511B must connect to the wireless-N
modem router using WPA2-PSK to achieve maximum performance. Wireless clients that connect
to the wireless-N modem router using WPA-PSK run at no more than 802.11g speed. This option
allows wireless clients to use either encryption method.
Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA or WPA2. Furthermore, client software is
required on the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do
include the client software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter
hardware and driver must also support WPA. Consult the product document for
your wireless adapter and WPA client software for instructions on configuring
WPA settings.
To configure WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES):
1. Log in at the default LAN address of
and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and password you have
set up.
2. Select Wireless Settings below Setup in the main menu of the wireless-N modem router.
3. Select the WPA-PSK (TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES) radio button. The Wireless Settings
screen expands to include more settings.
4. Enter the pre-shared key in the Network Key field using between 8 and 63 characters.
