Security
This device provides many types of wireless security (wireless data encryption). When
you use data encryption, data transferred by radio signals in the air will become
unreadable for those people who don’t know the correct encryption key (encryption
password).
There are four types of security level you can select: Disable (no security - data
encryption disabled), WEP, WPA Pre-shared Key, and WPA Radius. Please refer to the
following sections for detailed instructions.
Disabled
When you select ‘Disabled’, wireless encryption for the network is disabled. This is not
recommended.
Click <Apply> at the bottom of the screen to save the above configuration. You can now
configure other sections by choosing Continue, or choose Apply to apply the settings and
reboot the device.
WEP
Key Length You can select the WEP key length for encryption, 64-bit or 128-bit. The
larger the key will be the higher level of security is used, but the
throughput will be lower.
Key Format You may select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal
Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP Key.
Key1 - Key4The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless network.
Use the following rules to setup a WEP key on the device.64-bit WEP: input
10-digits Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or5-digit ASCII
character as the encryption keys. 128-bit WEP: input 26-digitHex values (in
the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) or 13-digit ASCII characters as the
encryption keys.
Click <Apply> at the bottom of the screen to save the above configuration. You can now
configure other sections by choosing Continue, or choose Apply to apply the settings and
reboot the device.
WPA
WPA Unicast Cipher Suite Available options are: WPA (TKIP), WPA2 (AES), and
WPA2 Mixed. You can select one of them, but you
have to make sure your wireless client supports the
cipher you selected.
Pre-shared Key Format Please select the format of pre-shared key here,
available options are ‘Passphrase’ (8 to 63
alphanumerical characters) and ‘Hex (64 hexadecimal
characters – 0 to 9 and a to f).
Pre-shared Key Please input pre-shared key according to the key
format you selected here. For security reason, don’t
use simple words.
Advanced
This tab allows you to set the advanced wireless options. The options included are
Channel Bandwidth, Fragment Threshold, RTS Threshold, Beacon Interval, and Preamble
Type. You should not change these parameters unless you know what effect the changes
will have on the router.
Fragment Threshold Set the Fragment threshold of wireless radio. The default
value is 2346.
RTS Threshold Set the RTS threshold of wireless radio. The default value is
2347.
Beacon Interval Set the beacon interval of wireless radio. The default value is
100.
DTIM Period Set the DTIM period of wireless radio. The default value is 3.
Data Rate Set the wireless data transfer rate to a certain value. Since
most wireless devices will negotiate with each other and pick
a proper data transfer rate automatically, it’s not necessary
to change this value unless you know what will happen after
modification.
N Data Rate Set the data rate of 802.11 N clients, available options are
MCS 0 to MCS 15. It’s safe to set this option to ‘Auto’ and it’s
not necessary to change this value unless you know what will
happen after modification.
Channel Width Select wireless channel width (bandwidth taken by wireless
signals of this access point). It’s suggested to select ‘Auto
20/40MHz’. Do not change to ’20 MHz’ unless you know what
it is.
Preamble Type Set the type of preamble of wireless radio. The default
setting is ‘Short Preamble’.
Broadcast ESSID Decide if the wireless access point will broadcast its own
ESSID or not. You can hide the ESSID of your wireless access
point (set the option to ‘Disable’), so only people who know
the ESSID of your wireless access point can get connected.
WMM WMM (Wi-Fi Multimedia) technology, which can improve the
performance of certain network applications, like audio/video
streaming, network telephony (VoIP), and others. When you
enable WMM, the access point will define the priority of
different kinds of data, to give higher priority to applications
which require instant response. Therefore you can improve
the performance of such network applications.
CTS Protect Enabling this setting will reduce the chance of radio signal
collisions between 802.11b and 802.11g wireless access
points. It’s recommended to set this option to ‘Auto’.
TX Power You can set the output power of wireless radio. Unless you’re
using this wireless access point in a really big space, you
may not have to set output power to 100%. This will enhance
security (malicious / unknown users on a distance will not be
able to reach your wireless access point).
WPS
Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is the simplest way to establish a connection between the
wireless clients and the wireless router. You don’t have to select the encryption mode
and fill in a long encryption passphrase every time when you try to setup a wireless
connection. You only need to press a button on both wireless client and wireless router,
and WPS will do the rest for you.
The Push button on the WLX-2003 has 2 functions:
Client mode: If you push the button for 0-5 seconds the device acts as a WPS enrollee.
In this mode it’s set to connect to your existing Wireless network. You have to push the
button on your router within 2 minutes.
AP mode: If you push the button for 5-10 seconds the device acts as a WPS registrar. In
this mode it’s set to connect client devices to the WLX-2003. You have to push the button
on the wireless client or in the utility of the wireless client within 2 minutes.
If you want to use the PIN code, you have to know the PIN code of the wireless client
and switch it to WPS mode, then fill-in the PIN code of the wireless client through the
web configuration interface of the wireless router.
Check the box to enable the WPS function and uncheck it to disable the WPS function.
WPS Current Status If the wireless security (encryption) function of this wireless
router is properly set, you’ll see a ‘Configured’ message here.
Otherwise, you’ll see ‘UnConfigured’.
Self Pin Code This is the WPS PIN code of the wireless router. You may
need this information when connecting to other WPS-enabled
wireless devices.
SSID This is the network broadcast name (SSID) of the router.
Authentication Mode It shows the active authentication mode for the wireless
connection.
Passphrase Key It shows the passphrase key that is randomly generated by
the wireless router during the WPS process. You may need
this information when using a device which doesn’t support
WPS.
Mode In Client mode the device is set to connect to your existing
network. In Registrar mode the device is set to connect to
your clients.
WPS via Push Button Press the button to start the WPS process. The device will
wait for the WPS request from the wireless devices within 2
minutes.
WPS via PIN You can fill-in the PIN code of the wireless device and press
the button to start the WPS process. The router will wait for
the WPS request from the wireless device within 2 minutes.
