3.5 About US This page displays some information about the 54Mpbs wireless LAN PC Card utility, which includes the version numbers for Driver, Firmware and Utility. When there is a new version of software available for upgrade, you will be able to identify by version numbers. - Page 17 English letters as numbers from 0 to 127. Authentication Type: Indication of an authentication algorithm which can be supported by the Access Point: 1. Open System: Open System authentication is the simplest of the available authentication algorithms. Essentially it is a null authentication algorithm. Any station that requests authentication with this algorithm may become authenticated if 802.11 Authentication Type at the recipient station is set to Open System authentication.

DHCP: Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, which is a protocol that lets network administrators manage and allocate Internet Protocol (IP) addresses in a network. Every computer has to have an IP address in order to communicate with each other in a TCP/IP based infrastructure network.
