numbers and letters. The Passphrase is case-sensitive and can
be up to 8 characters.
4 Every wireless network client needs to be set individually by
entering the Passphrase on all wireless devices on the
network. Open the software that came with the device, which
should be running on the computer where the device is
installed. Find the configuration menu for security, choose
WPA2 or WPA, and enter the Passphrase, exactly as you
entered it on the X6v
Wireless Setup page.
Your security setup configuration is now complete!
Setting Up Security Using WEP
If all of your network devices DO NOT support WPA2 or WPA,
you can use WEP to configure network security. WEP can be
configured two ways: 64-bit and 128-bit. 128-bit WEP provides a
bit more security than 64-bit, but 128-bit WEP also tends to
diminish network performance. We recommend that most people
configure their WEP for 64-bit security.
1 Click the Wireless icon in the Zoom Configuration
Manager. This will open the Wireless Setup page. Go to
Encryption (which should say None) and select WEP-64 bit
(or WEP-128 bit for more security, but diminished network
performance) from the drop-down menu. Six new boxes open
directly below the Encryption box.
