Reference Manual for the NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602v3 • Data Encryption: Select the desired option. The available options depend on the Network Authentication setting above. The default is None. The supported options are: - None - No encryption is used. This is the default. - 64 bits WEP - Standard WEP encryption, using 40/64 bit encryption. - 128 bits WEP - Standard WEP encryption, using 104/128 bit encryption. - 152 bits WEP - Proprietary mode that will only work with other wireless devices that support this mode. - TKIP - This is the standard encryption method used with WPA. - AES - This is the standard encryption method for WPA2. Some clients may support AES with WPA, but this is not part of the 802.11 standards and is not supported by this Access Point. • Passphrase: To use the "passphrase" to generate the WEP keys, enter a passphrase and click the "Generate Keys" button. You can also enter the keys directly. These keys must match the other wireless stations. • Key 1, Key 2, Key 3, Key 4: If using WEP, select the key to be used as the default key. Data transmissions are always encrypted using the default key. The other keys can only be used to decrypt received data. • WPA Passphrase (Network Key): If using WPA-PSK, enter the passphrase here. All wireless stations must use the same passphrase (network key). The network key must be from 8 to 63 characters in length. • Wireless Client Security Separation: If enabled, the associated wireless clients will not be able to communicate with each other. This feature is intended for hotspots and other public access situations. The default is Disabled. 3-14 Basic Installation and Configuration 202-10060-02, February 2005
