Wpa/Wpa2 Encryption - Hama 62769 Operating Instructions Manual

WEP 64 bit ASCII requires 5 characters
WEP 64 bit HEX requires 10 characters
WEP 128 bit ASCII requires 13 characters
WEP 128 bit HEX requires 26 characters
WEP 152 bit ASCII requires 16 characters
WEP 152 bit HEX requires 32 characters
In the lower area, you can save 4 codes of which only one is used. This allows you to change the code
regularly if the other wireless LAN devices also support this. You can also enter just one code and use it all
the time.
The code selected under Transmit key is always transferred.
Sample codes:
64 bit Hex (10 characters) = 231074a6ef
64 bit ASCII (5 characters) = j31n!
128 bit Hex (26 characters) = 231074a6b9773ce43f91a5bef3
128 bit ASCII (13 characters) = urlaub2006!+0

3.2.2 WPA/WPA2 encryption

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an encryption method for WLAN. WPA contains the WEP architecture,
but offers additional protection via dynamic codes, which are based on the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol
(TKIP), and also offers pre-shared keys (PSK) or extensible authentication protocol (EAP) for user authen-
tication. However, a radius server is required for this. WPA2 is a development of WPA and uses a different
encryption algorithm, advanced encryption standard (AES).
Authentication via pre-shared key
Select WPA/WPA2 Passphrase and then click Confi gure.
ASCII = at least 8 and no more than 63 random characters. Letters (A-Z), numbers and punctuation marks are
allowed or
Hex = For a code with a length of 64 characters, whereby only characters from 0-9 and a-f can be used.
Click OK to confi rm your entries. In the Profi le management tab, you can now select your profi le and Activate
it by clicking the button.
