Configuring Wireless Settings
To configure the wireless settings on your router, login to the router and click
the
icon. The Wi-Fi-2.4GHz Band page appears.
WPA/WPA2 Encryption Standards
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) and Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 (WPA2) are
encryption methods developed by the Wi-Fi Alliance. Both of these methods
encrypt packets using a 256-bit key.
Configuring Wi-Fi 2.4GHz Settings
To configure the 2.4GHz wireless feature on your router:
1. Enter up to 32 characters into the SSID field. The SSID is case sensitive.
By default this is set to the model number of your router (RF-HTN104).
2. Choose an authentication method. You can choose between None, WPA, WPA2 or WPA/WPA2. For the best combination of security and flexibility, choose
WPA/WPA2. This will mean that devices that support only one of the methods will still be able to connect. It is strongly recommended that you do not choose None
as anybody will be able to join your private network.
3. Select an encryption Cipher (AES or AES/TKIP).
4. Enter a Passphrase / Pre-Shared Key (PSK). This must be at least 8 characters in length. Be sure to select a secure passphrase so that your network will not be
accessible by intruders.
Click the
button to save your settings when you have finished. If you wish to cancel, press the button.
