Frequently Asked Questions Q1: My wireless LAN card supports Short and Long Preamble, if I want to use DWL-1700AP as my access device, what is the best preamble setting for it? A: The DWL-1700AP default allows all stations to associate and cannot disallow associations from stations that do not support Long Preamble. Q2: What are the differences between Local and Remote authentication settings in 802.1x function? A: Local - refers to the user that is authenticated by the DWL-1700AP. The DWL-1700AP only supports EAP-MD5 for the 802.1x security. If you select Local in 802.1x settings, you need to enable the 802.1x function and type the appropriate Username and Password in the user settings. Remote RADIUS - refers to the user that is authenticated by the RADIUS Server. When you select Remote RADIUS server, the Local user parameters settings will become useless. You will need to configure the RADIUS Server settings and type the appropriate RADIUS Server IP and RADIUS Share Key in the Advanced>802.1x screen in the DWL-1700AP's configuration utility, matching the settings in the Remote RADIUS Server.
