≪ Communicating via AirStation ≫
You can connect to the Internet or communicate with computers on the
wired LAN via BUFFALO's AirStation.
Wireless LAN PC
■ WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) - Recommendation
of Encryption
Since the wireless LAN card communicates using radio waves, radio
packets could be intercepted and analyzed outside. To ensure transmission
security, it is recommended to set a password called 'WEP' in the radio
packets during communication.
This card allows two types of WEP; 40-bit WEP and 128-bit WEP. Setting
128-bit WEP (13 alphabetic characters or 26 hex digits) assures higher
security. However, when communicating with a wireless LAN product
compatible only with 40-bit WEP (5 alphabetic characters or 10 hex digits),
it is necessary to set the 40-bit WEP in this product.
※ For the WEP (encryption) setting in the AirStation, refer to the manual
included in the AirStation.
