l  Disabled: No encryption.   
l  WEP: Deselect Network Key is provided for me 
automatically and enter the Key provided by the network. 
Available only with Open and Shared Authentication.   
l  TKIP: Available with WPA and WPA-PSK Authentication.   
 
  TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) includes four algorithms: 
MIC (message integrity check), to protect packets from 
tampering; PPK (Per-Packet Key) hashing, to prevent weak key 
attacks; extended IV (initialization vector), to reduce IV reuse 
and the possibility that a hacker will collect sufficient packets to 
crack the encryption; and a re-keying mechanism, to change the 
temporal key dynamically. TKIP is the most commonly used 
encryption method; however, if your wireless clients do not 
support TKIP, the WX-5803 also supports AES (Advanced 
Encryption Security) encryption. AES will replace 802.11's 
RC4-based encryption under 802.11i specification. 
 
Network key 
Enter the security key for data encryption, when WEP or 
WPA-PSK is selected. This can be entered in ASCII or 
hexadecimal for WEP and in ASCII for WPA-PSK.   
 
Key index 
There are four Keys (1, 2, 3, 4) that can be selected for WEP. 
The key index selected here must match the network key index. 
 
The key is provided for me automatically   
Select if the key is automatically provided. Most often, the key is 
not automatically provided, so you have to un-check this box   
and enter the network key. If using a RADIUS server, the key is 
automatically provided.   
 
This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network 
Select if the network you are creating or accessing is a 
computer-to computer (ad hoc) network. If you are attempting to 
connect to an infrastructure network, then do not select this 
setting. 
 
Step 8  After entering the information for this network, click OK. 
The Wireless Network window is displayed and the new network 
is listed in the Preferred networks area.   
 
Step 9  Your computer is connected to the selected network 
when you see a blue bubble on top of the icon for that network.
