Authentication Settings
Network Authentication
and
Data Encryption
From the Network Authentication drop-down list, select Open System,
WPA-PSK, or WPA2-PSK. Your selection determines the options that the
Data Encryption drop-down list provides, and whether or not the WPA
Passphrase (Network Key) field displays.
Open System Although you can use the bridge co
mmunication without any
authentication and encryption, NETGEAR recommends that
you use WEP if you do select an open system. From the
Data Encryption drop-down list, select one of the following:
None. No
authentication and encryption.
64-b
it WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 40/64-bit
encryption.
12
8-bit WEP. Standard WEP encryption, using 104/128-bit
encryption.
152
-bit WEP. Proprietary WEP encryption mode, using
128+24 bits encryption. This mode functions only with
other wireless station that support this mode.
WPA-PSK TKIP (T
emporal Key Integrity Protocol) is the standard
encryption method used with WPA-PSK and the only
selection possible from the Data Encryption drop-down list.
In the WPA Passphrase (Network Key) field, enter a
p
assphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between
8 and 63 characters (inclusive).
WPA2-PSK AES (Adva
nced Encryption Standard) is the standard
encryption method used with WPA2-PSK and the only
selection possible from the Data Encryption drop-down list.
In the WPA Passphrase (Network Key) field, enter a
p
assphrase. The passphrase length needs to be between
8 and 63 characters (inclusive).
Note: NETGEAR recommends WPA2-PSK authentication
with AES en
cryption if you want to use the 11n rates and
speed.
Link Test
IP Address To verify the connection between the access point and the wireless station
that you inten
d to build a bridge with, enter the IP address of the wireless
station, and then click Link Test. The Link Test Process Status field displays
the results of the test (Uninitialized, In Process, Success, Timed Out, or
Failure).
Note: You should be able to ping the IP address of both APs from a
con
nected client. Failure to ping one of the APs means that the wireless signal
is not traversing the bridge. Failure to ping both IP addresses means that the
clients is not connected correctly.
