This setting will have to be identical to the wireless router or access point that you set up. 6. Type in your encryption key in the "Network Key" box. Important: Enter your pre-shared key. This can be from eight to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key must be used on all of the clients that you set up. 7. Click "OK" to apply settings. What is the difference between 802.11b, 802.11g, G+ MIMO, and Pre-N? Currently there are four levels of wireless networking standards, which transmit data at very different maximum speeds. Each is based on the designation 802.11(x), so named by the IEEE, the board that is responsible for certifying networking standards. The most common wireless networking standard, 802.11b, transmits information at 11Mbps; 802.11a and 802.11g work at 54Mbps; G+ MIMO works at 54Mbps; and Pre-N works at 108Mbps. 74
