Reference Manual for the Integrated ADSL Modem and Wireless Router with Voice, Model Table 3-1. Field Wireless Security Options (continued) Description WPA-PSK (WiFi Protected Access PreShared Key) WPA Pre-Shared-Key uses a pre-shared key to perform the authentication and generate the initial data encryption keys. Then, it dynamically varies the encryption key. For a full explanation of WPA, see "Wireless Communications" in Appendix B. Note: Not all wireless adapters support WPA. Furthermore, client software is required on the client. Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 do include the client software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA. WPA-802.1x User authentication is implemented using 802.1x and RADIUS servers. For a full explanation of WPA, see "Wireless Communications" in Appendix B. Fill in the following: • Radius Server Name/IP Address This field is required. Enter the name or IP address of the Radius Server on your LAN. • Radius Port Enter the port number used for connections to the Radius Server. • Radius Shared Key Enter the desired value for the Radius shared key. This key enables the DG834GV to log in to the Radius server and must match the value used on the Radius server. How to Set Up and Test Basic Wireless Connectivity Follow the instructions below to set up and test basic wireless connectivity. Once you have established basic wireless connectivity, you can enable security settings appropriate to your needs. 1. Log in to the DG834GV modem router at its default LAN address of http://192.168.0.1 with its default user name of admin and default password of password, or using whatever LAN address and password you have set up. 2. Click the Wireless Settings link in the main menu of the DG834GV modem router. 3. Choose a suitable descriptive name for the wireless network name (SSID). In the SSID box, enter a value of up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The default SSID is Wireless. Note: The SSID of any wireless access adapters must match the SSID you configure in the Integrated ADSL Modem and Wireless Router with Voice, Model DG834GV. If they do not match, you will not get a wireless connection to the DG834GV. 3-6 Wireless Configuration v1.0, September 2006
