Wireless Modes

Ad-Hoc (peer-to-peer or computer-to-computer) mode: the Channel, SSID,

and WEP (encryption) must be the same among all wireless devices.

Infrastructure (Access Point) mode: requires a wireless Access Point (AP)

or Access Point Router to allow wireless clients to communicate with wired

Ethernet network. The wireless adapter’s SSID and WEP must match the

AP’s settings.

Moreover, all connected wireless devices should have the IP address under

same range and same subnet (e.g. IP address: 192.168.1.5, subnet mask:

255.255.255.0), you can follow the procedures in APPENDIX on page 8 to

check and configure the network adapter’s IP address.

• Network Mode: select “Infrastructure” when connecting to an “Access

Point” or “Wireless Router”. Select “802.11 Ad-Hoc for peer-to-peer

(computer-to-computer) connection.

• Network SSID: this is the wireless network’s name. To make the

connection, the wireless devices in the same network need to have the

same SSID.

• Channel: Available in “802.11 Ad-Hoc” mode only. Wireless devices in

the same network need to use the same channel number.

• Enable Encryption: check this box to enable the encryption.

• Format: select the encryption format in “ASCII” or “HEX” (hexadecimal).

• Key Length: select the encryption key length.

40/64-bit: ASCII: 5 alphanumeric characters, any combination of

numbers 0 ~ 9 and letters a ~ z (upper and/or lower case).

Hex: 10 characters, with any combination of numbers 0 ~

9 and letters a ~ f (upper or lower case).

128-bit: ASCII: 13 alphanumeric characters, any combination of

numbers 0 ~ 9 and letters a ~ z (upper and/or lower case).

Hex: 26 characters, with any combination of numbers

0 ~ 9 and letters a ~ f (upper or lower case).

• Manual Entry: input the keys manually.

• Key 1 ~ 4: to increase the security level, you can input up to 4 Keys for

the wireless connection, and then activate different key on different

time/date. Only one Key is activated at one time.

• Create with Passphrase: type in any easy to remember phrase (name

and/or numbers), click “Apply”, and the utility generates the 4 keys

automatically. The same passphrase generates the same set of keys.

After making the connection, the Utility’s “Status” page displays the “Signal

Strength” and “Link Quality” for this connection.

Note: the Signal Quality and Link Quality meters are for your reference

only. It does not reflect the connection’s actual speed (bandwidth).

To save the current settings, click on “Profile” tab, enter a desired profile,

name, click on “Save”, and then click on “Activate”. You can save multiple

profiles for different wireless connections (e.g. home, office, coffee shop, and

hotel). To activate a saved profile, click on “Profile” tab, select the desired

“Profile Name” from the drop-down menu, and click “Activate”.

To delete a profile, select the “profile name” and click “Delete”.

the icon is green, the connection is successful.

3. Check if the SSID is the same between the linking devices/stations.

4. Check if the security key is the same between the linking devices/stations.

5. Make sure all the wireless devices’ IP addresses are in the same

range/class.
