 Click the Set WEP Keys
will prompt you a
window to set 64bit or 128bit Encryption.
 Select HEX if you are using
hexadecimal
numbers (0-9, or A-F). Select ASCII
if you are

 Ten hexadecimal digits or five
ASCII
characters are needed if 64-bit WEP
is used;
26 hexadecimal digits or 13 ASCII characters

Encryption: WPA (TKIP)
WPA (TKIP): If WPA is selected, users will have to select the Authentication modes
between Enterprise (RADIUS) and Personal (Pre-shared Key).
Pre-shared Key
Pre-Shared-Key serves as a password. Users may key in a 1
to 63 characters string to set the password or leave it blank,
in which the 802.1x Authentication will be activated. Make
sure the same password is used on client's end.
There are two formats for choice to set the Pre-shared key,
i.e. Passphrase and Hex. If Hex is selected, users will have
to enter a 64 characters string. For easier configuration, the
Passphrase (at least 8 characters) format is recommended.
Group Key Life Time
Enter the number of seconds that will elapse before the group
key change automatically. The default is 86400 seconds.
Enable Pre-
Authentication
The two most important features beyond WPA to become
standardized through 802.11i/WPA2 are: pre-authentication,
which enables secure fast roaming without noticeable signal
latency.
Preauthentication provides a way to establish a PMK security
association before a client associates. The advantage is that
the client reduces the time that it's disconnected to the
network.
Authentication RADIUS
Server
Port: Enter the RADIUS Server’s port number provided by
your ISP. The default is 1812.
IP Address: Enter the RADIUS Server’s IP Address
provided by your ISP.
