WPA2 Security Settings

4.4.2
WPA2, defined by the IEEE 802.11i standard, is one of the latest wireless encryption
methods. If you would like to use WPA2 in your wireless network, all the wireless adapters
in your network should support WPA2. For Centrino platform computers, it is necessary
to download the WPA2 updates for the Microsoft XP operating system to be able to use
WPA2 ( www.microsoft.com ).
To enable WPA2 encryption:
1. Go to "Wireless Security" under the "WIRELESS" menu of the Web interface of your
router.
2. Click on the "WPA" button in the "Select Wireless Security Level" section of the "Wireless
Security" screen.
3. Click on the "WPA2" and "PSK Key" buttons and enter a network key that is 8 to 63
characters long (use a combination of letters and digits) in the "Passphrase" field.
Make sure yo u cho ose a key that is not easy to guess. Click "Save".
4. You must activate WPA2 and set the same network key in all the devices that will
communicate with your AirTies AP-400.

WEP Security Settings

4.4.3
The AirTies AP-400 supports WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) encryption in addition to the
WPA encryption standards. If any of the devices in your wireless network does not support
WPA, it is recommended that you choose WEP encryption.
To enable WEP encryption:
1. Go to "Wireless Security" under the "WIRELESS" menu of the Web interface of your
router.
2. Click on the "WEP" button in the "Select Wireless Security Level" section of the "Wireless
Security" screen.
3. Three levels of WEP encryption exists. 64-bit encryption uses a key of 10 hexadecimal
digits (A-F and 0-9). 128-bit encryption uses 26 digits, and 256-bit encryption uses 58
digits. A key with more digits is more secure. After selecting the key length, enter the
appropriate number of hexadecimal digits, any combination of (0-9, A-F), for the key.
