3.1.5 Wireless LAN security settings (wireless security)

You can set the encryption for your wireless network here. Note that activating Wireless LAN without also setting

encryption results in a security risk. For this reason, use one of the encryptions options described in the following.

a) Encryption type WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)

We recommend using encryption option WPA(TKIP), WPA2(AES), or WPA2 Mixed. WPA stands for Wi-Fi Protected

Access and offers high protection for wireless networks. WPA contains the WEP architecture, but offers

additional protection through dynamic keys based on the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP). WPA2 is a

development of WPA and uses a different encryption algorithm, advanced encryption standard (AES). WPA2 Mixed

Mode allows clients using WPA or WPA2 to access the access point. The mixture is very practical if not all clients

are WPA2 compatible.

Then select the key format (pre-shared key format). Select either Pass phrase for a key with a length of at least 8

and a maximum of 63 characters, for which letters (A-Z), numbers, and punctuation marks can be used, or Hex for

a 64-character key, in which only numbers from 0-9 and letters from a-f can be used. The next step is to enter a

key (pre-shared key). Any client wanting to access the access point must know this character string. Then end the

Wizard by clicking OK.

b) Encryption type WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

WEP is a standard encryption algorithm for WLAN. It controls access to the network and guarantees the integrity of

the data. This method is considered vulnerable due to a range of weaknesses. Therefore, if possible, you should use

WPA instead.

To use WEP, ﬁ rst select WEP as the encryption option. Then select whether you want to use 64 bit or 128 bit

encryption (for key length), whereas the latter offers greater security. Next, select either Hex (characters from 0-9

and a-f) or ASCII (any character) for the Key format. This also determines the length of the key.

You can preset up to four keys in Default Tx Key.

Select Key 1, for example, and enter your key of choice with the required length in the ﬁ elds underneath the

selection.

Examples:

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

Then end the Wizard by clicking OK.

3.2 Conﬁ guration as repeater (WDS mode)

What is WDS? Wireless Distribution System is the name for wireless connections between multiple access points,

and also allows clients to log-in, which is not permitted by other bridge modes. The bandwidth of the network is

halved for each additional access point as the packets have to be sent twice.

This makes it a combination of the previous modes.
