Wireless-G Router WGR614v10 Reference Manual

Safeguarding Your Network 2-5

v1.0, February 2010

• Wireless Network Name (SSID). ______________________________ The SSID identifies

the wireless network. You can use up to 32 alphanumeric characters. The SSID is case-

sensitive. The SSID in the wireless adapter card must match the SSID of the wireless router. In

some configuration utilities (such as in Windows XP), the term “wireless network name” is

used instead of SSID.

•If WEP Authentication is used, circle one: Open System, Shared Key, or Auto.

– WEP Encryption Key Size. Choose one: 64-bit or 128-bit. Again, the encryption key

size must be the same for the wireless adapters and the wireless router.

– Data Encryption (WEP) Keys. There are two methods for creating WEP data encryption

keys. Whichever method you use, record the key values in the spaces provided.

• Passphrase Method. ______________________________ These characters are

case-sensitive. Enter a word or group of printable characters and click Generate. Not

all wireless devices support the passphrase method.

• Manual Method. These values are not case-sensitive. For 64-bit WEP, enter 10

hexadecimal digits (any combination of 0–9, a–f, or A–F). For 128-bit WEP, enter

26 hexadecimal digits.

Key 1: ___________________________________

Key 2: ___________________________________

Key 3: ___________________________________

Key 4: ___________________________________

• If WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK authentication is used:

– Passphrase. ______________________________ These characters are case-sensitive.

Enter a word or group of printable characters. When you use WPA-PSK, the other devices

in the network will not connect unless they are also set to WPA-PSK and are configured

with the correct passphrase. Similarly, when you use WPA2-PSK, the other devices in the

network will not connect unless they are also set to WPA2-PSK and are configured with

the correct passphrase.

Use the procedures described in the following sections to specify the Wireless-G Router. Store this

information in a safe place.

Note: If you select Shared Key, the other devices in the network will not connect

unless they are also set to Shared Key and are configured with the correct key.
