System Configuration tab:  
Profile Name: Users can enter profile name, or use default name defined  
by system. The default is PROF# (#1, #2, #3....).  
SSID: The SSID is the unique name shared among all wireless access  
points in the wireless network. The name must be identical for all devices  
and wireless access points attempting to connect to the same network.  
Users can use pull-down menu to select from available access points.  
Network Type: There are two types, Infrastructure and Ad-hoc modes.  
Under Ad-hoc mode users can also choose the preamble type, the  
available preamble type includes Auto and Long. In addition to that, the  
channel field will be available for setup in Ad-hoc mode.  
The Infrastructure is intended for the connection between wireless  
network cards and an access point. With the Wireless LAN USB  
Adapter, users can connect wireless LAN to a wired global network  
via an access point.

The Ad-hoc lets users set a small wireless workgroup easily and  
quickly. Equipped with the Wireless LAN USB Adapter, users can  
share files and printers between each PC and laptop.  
Tx Power: Transmit power, the amount of power used by a radio  
transceiver to send the signal out. Select the Tx power percentage from  
the pull-down list including Auto, 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, 10% and  
Lowest.  
Preamble: This function will show up when Ad-hoc network type be  
selected. A preamble is a signal used in wireless environment to  
synchronize the transmitting timing including Synchronization and Start  
frame delimiter. Select from the pull-down menu to change the Preamble  
type into Auto or Long.  
Power Save Mode:  
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode): When this mode is selected, the  
power supply will be normally provided even when there is no  
throughput. (Default power save mode is CAM.)  
PSM (Power Saving Mode): When this mode is selected, this device  
will stay in power saving mode even when there is high volume of  
throughput.  
RTS Threshold: Users can adjust the RTS threshold number by sliding  
the bar or key in the value directly. (The default value is 2347.) RTS/CTS  
Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node”  
problem. If the “Hidden Node” problem is an issue, users have to specify  
the packet size. The RTS/CTS mechanism will be activated if the data size  
exceeds the values that have been set.  
This value should remain at its default setting of 2347. Should users  
encounter inconsistent data flow, only minor modifications of this value  
are recommended.  
Fragment Threshold: Users can adjust the Fragment threshold number  
by sliding the bar or key in the value directly. (The default value is 2346.)  
The mechanism of Fragmentation Threshold is used to improve the  
efficiency when high traffic flows along in the wireless network. If the  
Wireless LAN USB Adapter often transmits large files in wireless  
network, users can enter new Fragment Threshold value to split the  
packet. The value can be set from 256 to 2346.  
Authentication and Security tab:  
Authentication Type: There are several types of authentication modes  
including Open, Shared, Leap, WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2 and  
WPA2-PSK.  
Open: If the access point or wireless router is using "Open”  
authentication, then the Wireless LAN USB Adapter will need to be set  
to the same authentication type.  
- 13 -  
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.  
Shared: Shared key is when both the sender and the recipient share a  
secret key.  
LEAP: Light Extensible Authentication Protocol. It is an EAP  
authentication type used primarily in Cisco Aironet WLANs. It  
encrypts data transmissions using dynamically generated WEP keys,  
and supports mutual authentication (only with CCX mode enabled.)  
WPA/ WPA-PSK/ WPA2/ WPA2-PSK: WPA or WPA-PSK  
authentications offer two encryption methods, TKIP and AES. For  
WPA-PSK, select the type of algorithm TKIP or AES and then enter a  
WPA Shared Key of 8-64 characters in the WPA Pre-shared Key field.  
Encryption Type: For Open and Shared authentication mode, the  
selection of encryption type are None and WEP. For WPA, WPA2,  
WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication mode, the encryption type  
supports both TKIP and AES.  
WPA Pre-shared Key: This is the shared secret key between AP and  
STA. For WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication mode, this field  
must be filled with character longer than 8 and less than 64 lengths.  
WEP Key: Only valid when using WEP encryption algorithm. The key  
must match with the AP’s key. There are four formats to enter the keys.  
ASCII (64 bits): 5 ASCII characters (case sensitivity).  
ASCII (128 bits): 13 ASCII characters (case sensitivity).  
Hexadecimal (64 bits): 10 Hex characters (0~9, a~f).  
Hexadecimal (128 bits): 26 Hex characters (0~9, a~f).  
Show Password: Check this box to show the passwords that have been  
entered.  
802.1x Setting: When users use radius server to authenticate client  
certificate for WPA authentication mode (WPA authentication do not  
support EAP Method- MD5-Challenge).

EAP Method:  
PEAP: Protect Extensible Authentication Protocol. PEAP transport  
securely authentication data by using tunnelling between PEAP  
clients and an authentication server. PEAP can authenticate wireless  
LAN clients using only server-side certificates, thus simplifying the  
implementation and administration of a secure wireless LAN.  
TLS / Smart Card: Transport Layer Security. Provides for  
certificate-based and mutual authentication of the client and the  
network. It relies on client-side and server-side certificates to perform  
authentication and can be used to dynamically generate user-based  
and session-based WEP keys to secure subsequent communications  
between the WLAN client and the access point.  
TTLS: Tunnelled Transport Layer Security. This security method  
provides for certificate-based, mutual authentication of the client and  
network through an encrypted channel. Unlike EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS  
requires only server-side certificates.  
EAP-FAST: Flexible Authentication via Secure Tunnelling. It was  
developed by Cisco. Instead of using  
a
certificate, mutual  
authentication is achieved by means of a PAC (Protected Access  
Credential) which can be managed dynamically by the authentication  
server. The PAC can be provisioned (distributed one time) to the  
client either manually or automatically. Manual provisioning is  
delivery to the client via disk or a secured network distribution  
method. Automatic provisioning is an in-band, over the air,  
distribution. For tunnel authentication, only support "Generic Token  
Card" authentication now.  
MD5-Challenge: Message Digest Challenge. Challenge is an EAP  
authentication type that provides base-level EAP support. It provides  
for only one-way authentication - there is no mutual authentication of  
wireless client and the network. (Only Open and Shared  
authentication mode can use this function.)  
Tunnel Authentication:  
Protocol: Tunnel protocol, List information including  
EAP-MSCHAP v2, EAP-TLS/ Smart Card, and Generic Token  
Card.  
Tunnel Identity: Identity for tunnel.  
Tunnel Password: Password for tunnel.  
Session Resumption: Reconnect the signal while broken up, to reduce  
the packet and improve the transmitting speed. Users can click the box to  
enable or disable this function.

Profile Name: Users can enter profile name, or use default name defined  
by system. The default is PROF# (#1, #2, #3....).  
SSID: The SSID is the unique name shared among all wireless access  
points in the wireless network. The name must be identical for all  
devices and wireless access points attempting to connect to the same  
network. Users can use pull-down menu to select from available access  
points.  
Network Type: There are two types, Infrastructure and Ad hoc modes.  
The Infrastructure is intended for the connection between wireless  
network cards and an access point. With the Wireless LAN USB  
Adapter, users can connect wireless LAN to a wired global network  
via an access point.  
The Ad hoc lets users set a small wireless workgroup easily and  
quickly. Equipped with the Wireless LAN USB Adapter, users can  
share files and printers between each PC and laptop.  
Tx Power: Transmit power, the amount of power used by a radio  
transceiver to send the signal out. Select the Tx power percentage from  
the pull-down list including Auto, 100%, 75%, 50%, 25%, 10% and

type into Auto or Long.  
Power Save Mode:  
CAM (Constantly Awake Mode): When this mode is selected, the  
power supply will be normally provided even when there is no  
throughput. (Default power save mode is CAM.)  
PSM (Power Saving Mode): When this mode is selected, this device  
will stay in power saving mode even when there is high volume of  
throughput.  
RTS Threshold: Users can adjust the RTS threshold number by sliding  
the bar or key in the value directly. (The default value is 2347.) RTS/CTS  
Threshold is a mechanism implemented to prevent the “Hidden Node”  
problem. If the “Hidden Node” problem is an issue, users have to specify  
the packet size. The RTS/CTS mechanism will be activated if the data size  
exceeds the value that have been set. This value should remain at its  
default setting of 2347. Should users encounter inconsistent data flow,  
only minor modifications of this value are recommended.  
Fragment Threshold: Users can adjust the Fragment threshold number  
by sliding the bar or key in the value directly. (The default value is 2346.)  
The mechanism of Fragmentation Threshold is used to improve the  
efficiency when high traffic flows along in the wireless network. If the  
Wireless LAN USB Adapter often transmits large files in wireless  
network, users can enter new Fragment Threshold value to split the  
packet. The value can be set from 256 to 2346.  
Authentication and Encryption tab:  
Authentication Type: There are six type of authentication modes  
including Open, Shared, WPA, WPA-PSK, WPA2 and WPA2-PSK.  
Open: If the access point or wireless router is using "Open”  
authentication, then the Wireless LAN USB Adapter will need to be set  
to the same authentication type.  
Shared: Shared key is when both the sender and the recipient share a  
secret key.
