Channel Spectrum width, the maximum data rate is MCS7
(65Mbps). If you select 40 MHz Channel Spectrum width
the maximum data rate is MCS7 (150 Mbps).
WEP
Automatic When selected, the rate algorithm will select
the best data rate, depending on link quality conditions.
It is recommended that you use this option, especially if
you are having trouble getting connected or losing data
at a higher rate. Refer to the Advanced section for detailed
information about rate algorithms.
Authentication Type One of the following authentication
methods should be selected if WEP security is used:
Wireless Security
In Access Point and Access Point WDS mode, this is where
you configure the wireless security settings that will be
used by the devices on your wireless network.
• Open The station is authenticated automatically by the
AP (selected by default).
• Shared Key Station is authenticated after the
challenge, generated by the AP.
In Station or Station WDS mode, you will need to match
the security settings of the Access Point that the AirRouter
is associated with.
WEP Key Length This determines the length of the WEP
security key. Select one of the two key length options:
• 64-bit This option is selected by default. A 64-bit key is
10 HEX or 5 ASCII characters in length.
Security The AirRouter supports the following wireless
security methods:
• 128-bit The 128-bit option provides a little more
• WEP WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is the oldest and
least secure security algorithm. WPA™/WPA2™ security
methods should be used when possible.
security and is 26 HEX or 13 ASCII characters in length.
Key Type Specifies the character format for the WEP key:
• HEX Selected by default, this option uses hexadecimal
characters. 0-9, A-F or a-f are valid characters.
• WPA WPA™ or Wi-Fi Protected Access was developed as
a stronger encryption method over WEP.
• ASCII ASCII uses the standard English alphabet and
numeric characters.
• WPA-TKIP WPA™ (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security
mode with TKIP support only. TKIP (Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol) uses the RC4 encryption algorithm.
WEP Key Enter the WEP encryption key adhering to the
selections you made for key length and key type:
• WPA-AES WPA™ (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security
mode with AES support only. AES (also known as CCMP)
- Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining Message
Authentication Code Protocol which uses the Advanced
Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm.

• WPA2 WPA2™ was developed to strengthen wireless
encryption security and is stronger than WEP and
WPA™.

Key Index Specifies the Index of the WEP Key used. 4
different WEP keys can be configured at the same time,
but only one is used. The effective key is set by choosing 1,
2, 3 or 4.
• WPA2-TKIP WPA2™ (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security
mode with TKIP support only. Temporal Key Integrity
Protocol which uses RC4 encryption algorithm.
• WPA2-AES WPA2™ (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security
mode with AES support only. AES (also known as
CCMP) - Counter Mode with Cipher Block Chaining
Message Authentication Code Protocol which uses the
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) algorithm. This
is the strongest security option available. If all of the
wireless devices on your network support this option, it
is recommended that you select it.
WPA™/WPA2™
The configuration options are the same for all of the
WPA™ and WPA2™ options. WPA2-AES is the strongest
security method. If all of the wireless devices on your
network support this option, it is recommended that you
select it.
If you want an open network without wireless security,
select None.
WPA Authentication One of the following WPA™ key
selection methods should be specified if WPA™ or WPA2™
security method is used:
• PSK Pre-shared Key method (selected by default).
