ZyXEL Communications P-6600HW-Tx v3 User Manual

Chapter 9 Wireless LAN

P-660HW-Tx v3 User’s Guide

When you select WPA2 or WPA2-PSK in your ZyXEL Device, you can also select an option 
(WPA compatible) to support WPA as well. In this case, if some wireless clients support 
WPA and some support WPA2, you should set up WPA2-PSK or WPA2 (depending on the 
type of wireless network login) and select the WPA compatible option in the ZyXEL Device.
Many types of encryption use a key to protect the information in the wireless network. The 
longer the key, the stronger the encryption. Every wireless client in the wireless network must 
have the same key.

If you are configuring the ZyXEL Device from a computer connected to the 
wireless LAN and you change the ZyXEL Device’s SSID or WEP settings, you 
will lose your wireless connection when you press Apply to confirm. You must 
then change the wireless settings of your computer to match the ZyXEL 
Device’s new settings.
