Wireless Security
Many networks use wireless security to encrypt wireless data communications. If you try to
connect to a network with wireless security the Smart Wizard detects it. Before you can use that
network you must set up the WG311T with exactly the same kind of wireless security settings. The
WG311T supports the following types of wireless security:
•
Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 Pre-Shared Key (WPA2-PSK)
•
Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK)
•
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)
For more information about wireless security, see the wireless reference document at:
http://documentation.netgear.com/reference/enu/wireless/index.htm
In addition to the wireless security features, networks should use LAN network security features
such as requiring a user name and password to access the shared resources in the network.
The procedures below explain how to configure the wireless encryption settings of your
NETGEAR 108 Mbps Wireless PCI Adapter WG311T.
Using Wireless Security Features
You can strengthen the security of your wireless connection by enabling Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) encryption of the wireless data communications. Or, you can use WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi
Protected Access Pre-Shared Key) encryption. For more information about wireless security, see
the Web link to
“Wireless Communications:” in Appendix B
.
In addition to the WG311T wireless security features, you should also configure appropriate LAN
network security features such as requiring a user name and password to access the shared
resources in your network.
The procedures below show how to set up the WEP encryption settings of your NETGEAR 108
Mbps Wireless PCI Adapter WG311T.
