NETGEAR 54 Mbps Wireless Access Point WG602v3 Reference Manual • WPA2-PSK - WPA2 is a later version of WPA. Only select this if all clients support WPA2. If selected, you must use AES encryption and a WPA passphrase (Network key). See "Configuring WPA2-PSK Wireless Security" on page 2-18 for complete configuration details. • WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK - This selection allows clients to use either WPA (with AES) or WPA2 (with TKIP). If selected, encryption must be TKIP and AES; a WPA passphrase (Network key) must also be entered. See "Configuring WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Wireless Security" on page 2-18 for complete configuration details). Note: All options are available if using Access Point mode. In other modes (e.g., Repeater, Bridge or Client) some options may be unavailable. • 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. - 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. • WEP Security Encryption Key: - 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. 2-14 v1.0, August 2006 Installation and Configuration

•
WPA2-PSK
– WPA2 is a later version of WPA. Only select this if all clients support
WPA2. If selected, you must use
AES
encryption and a WPA passphrase (Network key).
See
“Configuring WPA2-PSK Wireless Security” on page 2-18
for complete configuration
details.
•
WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK
– This selection allows clients to use either WPA (with AES)
or WPA2 (with TKIP). If selected, encryption must be
TKIP and AES
; a WPA passphrase
(Network key) must also be entered. See
“Configuring WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK Wireless
Security” on page 2-18
for complete configuration details).
•
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.
–
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.
•
WEP Security Encryption Key:
–
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.
Note:
All options are available if using Access Point mode. In other modes (e.g.,
Repeater, Bridge or Client) some options may be unavailable.
