Chapter 5 Access Point Mode Configuration Table 17 Access Point Mode: Configuration (continued) LABEL DESCRIPTION Output Power Set this field if you need to conserve power consumption (especially for notebook computers). This control changes the strength of the G-320H's antenna gain or transmission power. Antenna gain, measured in dBm (decibel relative units compared to milliwatts), is the increase in coverage. Higher antenna gain improves the range of the signal for better communications. Select High to set the G-320H's antenna to transmit at 17-dBm. Select Medium-High to set the G-320H's antenna to transmit at 15-dBm. Select Medium-Low to set the G-320H's antenna to transmit at 13-dBm. Select Low to set the G-320H's antenna to transmit at 11-dBm. This allows for the least power consumption. Security Settings WEP Select 64 Bits, 128 Bits or 256 Bits to activate WEP encryption and then fill in the related fields. Select Disable to deactivate the WEP encryption. Authentication Type Select an authentication method. Choices are Auto, Shared Key and Open System. Refer to Section 3.2.3.1.2 on page 35 for more information. Pass Phrase When you select the radio button, enter a passphrase of up to 63 case-sensitive printable characters. As you enter the passphrase, the G-320H automatically generates four different WEP key and displays it in the key field below. Refer to Section 3.2.3.1 on page 35 for more information. At the time of writing, you cannot use passphrase to generate 256-bit WEP keys. Transmit Key Select a default WEP key to use for data encryption. The key displays in the field below. Key x (where x is a number between 1 and 4) Select this option if you want to manually enter the WEP keys. Enter the WEP key in the field provided. If you select 64 Bits in the WEP field. Enter either 10 hexadecimal digits in the range of "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" (for example, 11AA22BB33) for HEX key type or Enter 5 ASCII characters (case sensitive) ranging from "a-z", "A-Z" and "0-9" (for example, MyKey) for ASCII key type. If you select 128 Bits in the WEP field, Enter either 26 hexadecimal digits in the range of "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" (for example, 00112233445566778899AABBCC) for HEX key type or Enter 13 ASCII characters (case sensitive) ranging from "a-z", "A-Z" and "0-9" (for example, MyKey12345678) for ASCII key type. If you select 256 Bits in the WEP field, Enter either 58 hexadecimal digits in the range of "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" (for example, 0000111122223333444455556666777788889999AAAABBBBCCCC000011) for HEX key type or Enter 29 ASCII characters (case sensitive) ranging from "a-z", "A-Z" and "0-9" (for example, MyKey111122223333444455556678) for ASCII key type.
