Network Router User Manual

Authentication Type

It’s very important to set wireless security settings properly. If

not enabled, hackers and malicious users can reach your

network and valuable data without user’s consent and this will

cause serious security problem.

This router supports WEP, WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK

authentication type. If the router has enabled the

authentication, all the wireless clients’ settings have to be

consistent with the router for building the connection.

WEP/WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK & WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

Parameter Description

WEP-64Bits

WEP is less level of security than WPA. WEP supports 64-bit

and 128-bit key lengths to encrypt the wireless data. The

longer key length will provide higher security. When “WEP-

64Bits” is selected, you have to enter exactly 5 ASCII

characters (“a-z” and “0-9”) or 10 hexadecimal digits ("0-9",

"a-f") for each Key (1-4).

WEP-128Bits

When “WEP-128Bits” is selected, you have to enter exactly

13 ASCII characters (“a-z” and “0-9”) or 26 hexadecimal digits

("0-9", "a-f") for each Key (1-4).

WPA-PSK

WPA-PSK is suitable for home and small business. It uses

TKIP or AES for data encryption. When “WPA-PSK” is

selected, please select the encryption method and enter 8-63

ASCII characters or 64 hexadecimal characters as the “Pre-

Shared Key”.

WPA2-PSK

WPA2-PSK is also for home and small business. It uses TKIP

or AES for data encryption. WPA2-PSK offers the highest

level of security available. When “WPA2-PSK” is selected,

please select the encryption method and enter 8-63 ASCII

characters or 64 hexadecimal characters as the “Pre-Shared

Key”.

WPA-PSK/ WPA2-PSK

When “WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK” is selected, please select the

encryption method (TKIP or AES) and enter 8-63 ASCII

characters or 64 hexadecimal characters as the “Pre-Shared

Key”.
