1 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the SP906GK. It complies with IEEE 802.11g standard and
supports up to 54Mbps high-speed wireless network connections. It can also work
with IEEE 802.11b devices. When SP906GK is connected to 11b devices, the link
speed will be up to 11Mbps.
It enables higher data throughput than the IEEE 802.11g standard (up to 54Mbps) and
supports specific ways to increase the data transfer rate for a time by compressing the
data and decreasing the waiting time to send the next data to the Routers or APs in
Turbo Mode. When SP906GK is connected to the Routers or APs with the proprietary
Turbo Mode feature, the wireless network will be even more efficient.
For WLAN security issues, SP906GK supports 64/128-bit WEP data encryption that
protects your wireless network from eavesdropping. It also supports WPA (Wi-Fi
Protected Access) feature that combines IEEE 802.1x and TKIP (Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol) technologies. Client user authorization is required before accessing
to APs or AP Routers, and the data transmitted in the network is encrypted/decrypted
by a dynamically changed secret key. Furthermore, SP906GK supports AES function,
offering a stronger encryption mechanism, which is often required by corporate and
government users.
SP906GK power consumption is also very low. SP906GK has several levels of power
saving modes, allowing user to customize from portable or handheld devices the way
he/she wishes to save power.
With its various features and ability to support advanced technology, SP906GK is the
most cost-effective solution to build your wireless network.

3.2.1.2 Wireless network security
Parameter
Description
Network Authentication Type This setting has to be consistent with the wireless
networks that SP906GK intends to connect.
Open System – No authentication is needed in the
wireless network.
Shared Key – Only wireless devices using a shared
key (WEP Key identified) are allowed to connect to
each other.
WPA – WPA provides a scheme of mutual
authentication using either IEEE 802.1x/Extensible
Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication or
pre-shared key (PSK) technology. It provides a high
level of assurance to enterprises, small businesses
and home users that data will remain protected and
that only authorized users may access their networks.
For enterprises that have already deployed IEEE
802.1x authentication, WPA offers the advantage of
leveraging the existing authentication databases and
infrastructure.
WPA-PSK – It is a special mode designed for home
and small business users who do not have access to
network authentication servers. In this mode, known as
Pre-Shared Key, the user manually enters the starting
- 12 -

password in their access point or gateway, as well as in
each wireless station in the network. WPA-PSK takes
over automatically from that point, keeping
unauthorized users that don't have the matching
password from joining the network, while encrypting
the data traveling between authorized devices.
WPA2 – Like WPA, WPA2 supports IEEE 802.1 x/EAP
authentication or PSK technology. It also includes a
new advanced encryption mechanism using the
Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is required
by the corporate user or government users. The
difference between WPA and WPA2 is that WPA2
provides data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA
uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).
WPA2-PSK – WPA2-PSK is also for home and small
business. The difference between WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK is that WPA2-PSK provides data
encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA-PSK uses
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).
WPA 802.1X – Set the wireless devices using a WPA
802.1X mode
WPA2 802.1X – Set the wireless devices using a
WPA2 802.1X mode
Data encryption
None – Disable the encryption mode.
WEP – Enable the WEP Data Encryption. When the
item is selected, you have to continue setting the WEP
Encryption keys.
TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol)
changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a
packet is a kind of message transmitted over a
network.) This ensures much greater security than the
standard WEP security.
AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest
degree of security and authenticity for digital
information and is the most advanced solution defined
by IEEE 802.11i for security in the wireless network.
Note: All devices in the network should use the same
encryption method to ensure the communication.

802.1x Setting
When you set the Authentication Type to Open,
Shared, WPA or WPA2, you can also enable IEEE
802.1x setting to use the authentication server or
certification server to authenticate client users.
WPA Pre-Shared Key
The WPA-PSK key can be from 8 to 64 characters and
can be letters or numbers. This same key must be
used on all of the wireless stations in the network.
WEP Key
(Key1 ~ Key4)
The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in
the wireless network. There are two types of key
length: 64-bit and 128-bit. Select the default encryption
key from Key 1 to Key 4 by selected the radio button.
Fill the text box by as instructed below:
64-bit – Input 10-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f”
and “0-9” range) or 5-digit ASCII characters (including
“a-z” and “0-9”) as the encryption keys. For example:
“0123456aef“or “test1”.
128-bit – Input 26-digit Hex values (in the “A-F”, “a-f”
and “0-9” range) or 13-digit ASCII characters (including
“a-z” and “0-9”) as the encryption keys. For example:
“01234567890123456789abcdef“ or “administrator”.

The IEEE 802.1X specification describes a protocol used for authenticating both clients
and servers on a network. The authentication algorithms and methods are those provided
by the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP), a method of authentication that has
been in use for a number of years on networks that provide Point-to-Point Protocol
(PPP) support as many internet service providers and enterprises do.
When an AP acting as an authenticator detects a wireless station on the LAN, it sends an
EAP-Request for the user's identity to the device. (EAP, the Extensible Authentication
Protocol, is an authentication protocol that runs before network layer protocols transmit
data over the link.) In turn, the device responds with its identity, and the AP relays this
identity to an authentication server, which is typically an external RADIUS server.

3.2.1.3 802.1x Setting-Certification
Parameter
Authentication Type
Description
The EAP authentication protocols this card supports
are listed below. This setting has to be consistent
with the wireless APs or Routers that SP906GK
intends to connect.
PEAP &TTLS – PEAP and TTLS are similar and easier
than TLS in that they specify a stand-alone
authentication protocol to be used within an encrypted
tunnel. TTLS supports any protocol within its tunnel,
including CHAP, MS-CHAP, MS-CHAPv2, PAP and
EAP-MD5. PEAP specifies that an EAP-compliant
authentication protocol must be used; this card
supports EAP-MSCHAP v2, EAP-TLS/Smart card and
Generic Token Card. The client certificate is optional
for authentication needs.
TLS/Smart Card –TLS is the most secure of the EAP
protocols but is not easy to use. It requires exchanging
digital certificates in the authentication phase. The
server presents a certificate to the client. After
validating the server’s certificate, the client will then
present a client certificate to the server for validation.
MD5-Challenge – MD5-Challenge is the easiest EAP
Type. It requires the wireless station to enter a set of
user name and password as the identity to RADIUS
Server.

4 Troubleshooting
This chapter provides solutions to problems commonly encountered during the
installation and operation of the adapter.
1. What is the IEEE 802.11g standard?
802.11g is the new IEEE standard for high-speed wireless LAN communications which
provides up to 54 Mbps data rate in the 2.4 GHz band. 802.11g is quickly becoming the
next mainstream in wireless LAN technology for the home, office and public networks.
802.11g defines the use of the same OFDM modulation technique specified in IEEE
802.11a for the 5 GHz frequency band and applies it in the same 2.4 GHz frequency
band as IEEE 802.11b. The 802.11g standard requires backward compatibility with
802.11b.
The standard specifically calls for:
A. A new physical layer for the 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) in the 2.4 GHz
frequency band, known as the extended rate PHY (ERP). The ERP adds OFDM as
a mandatory new coding scheme for 6, 12 and 24 Mbps (mandatory speeds), and
18, 36, 48 and 54 Mbps (optional speeds). The ERP includes the modulation
schemes found in 802.11b including CCK for 11 and 5.5 Mbps and Barker code
modulation for 2 and 1 Mbps.
B. A protection mechanism called RTS/CTS governs how 802.11g devices and
802.11b devices interoperate.
2. What is the IEEE 802.11b standard？
The IEEE 802.11b Wireless LAN standard subcommittee formulates the
standard for the industry. The objective is to enable wireless LAN hardware
from different manufactures to communicate.
3. What does IEEE 802.11 feature support？
The product supports the following IEEE 802.11 functions:
z
z
z
z
z
z
CSMA/CA plus Acknowledge Protocol
Multi-Channel Roaming
Automatic Rate Selection
RTS/CTS Feature
Fragmentation
Power Management
4. What is Ad-hoc？
An Ad-hoc integrated wireless LAN is a group of computers, each having a Wireless
LAN adapter, connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad hoc wireless LAN is
applicable at a departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation.
5. What is Infrastructure？
An integrated wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration.
Infrastructure is applicable to enterprise scale for wireless access to central
- 24 -

database, or wireless application for mobile workers.
6. What is BSS ID？
A specific Ad hoc LAN is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). Computers in a BSS
must be configured with the same BSS ID.
7. What is WEP？
WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy mechanism based on a 40 bit
shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802 .11 standard.
8. What is TKIP?
TKIP is a quick-fix method to quickly overcome the inherent weaknesses in WEP
security, especially the reuse of encryption keys. TKIP involves IEEE 802.11i
WLAN security standard.
9. What is AES?
AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), a chip-based security, has been developed to
ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information, wherever
and however communicated or stored, while making more efficient use of hardware
and/or software than previous encryption standards. It is also included in IEEE 802.11i
standard. Compare with AES, TKIP is a temporary protocol for replacing WEP security
until manufacturers implement AES at the hardware level.
10.Can Wireless products support printer sharing？
Wireless products perform the same function as LAN products. Therefore, Wireless
products can work with Netware, Windows 2000, or other LAN operating systems to
support printer or file sharing.
11.Would the information be intercepted while transmitting on air？
WLAN features two-fold protection in security. On the hardware side, as with Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum technology, it has the inherent security feature of
scrambling. On the software side, WLAN series offer the encryption function (WEP)
to enhance security and Access Control. Users can set it up based on their needs.
12.What is DSSS？What is FHSS？And what are their differences？
Frequency-hopping spread-spectrum (FHSS) uses a narrowband carrier that
changes frequency in a pattern that is known to both transmitter and receiver.
Properly synchronized, the net effect is to maintain a single logical channel. To
an unintended receiver, FHSS appears to be short-duration impulse noise.
Direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) generates a redundant bit pattern for
each bit to be transmitted. This bit pattern is called a chip (or chipping code). The
longer the chip is, the greater the probability that the original data can be
recovered. Even if one or more bits in the chip are damaged during transmission,
statistical techniques embedded in the radio can recover the original data
without-the need for retransmission. To an unintended receiver, DSSS appears
as low power wideband noise and is rejected (ignored) by most narrowband
receivers.

13.What is Spread Spectrum？
Spread Spectrum technology is a wideband radio frequency technique
developed by the military for use in reliable, secured, mission-critical
communication systems. It is designed to trade off bandwidth efficiency for
reliability, integrity, and security. In other words, more bandwidth is consumed
than in the case of narrowband transmission, but the trade off produces a signal
that is, in effect, louder and thus easier to detect, provided that the receiver
knows the parameters of the spread-spectrum signal being broadcast. If a
receiver is not tuned to the right frequency, a spread –spectrum signal would
look like background noise. There are two main types: Direct Sequence Spread
Spectrum (DSSS) and Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS).
