ASUS WLAN Card

The Encryption page allows you to set 

up the encryption settings for your WLAN 

card. For data confidentiality in a wireless 

environment, IEEE 802.11 specifies a Wired 

Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm to 

offer transmission privacy similar to wired 

network. WEP uses keys to encrypt data 

packets sent and decrypt data packets 

received. The encryption process can 

scramble frame bits to avoid disclosure to others. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is 

an improved security system for 802.11 that encrypts data sent over radio waves. 

WPA is developed to overcome the weakness of the WEP protocol.
Network Authentication - Set up authentication for your WLAN card. Options are:
 

Open - Sets the network operating in the Open System mode that disables 

authentication protection for the network or use the WEP encryption for the 

network. 

 

Shared - Sets the network operating in the Shared Key mode that uses the 

WEP encryption for your network.

 

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK - Use the WPA Pre-Shared Key/WPA2 Pre-Shared Key 

in the Infrastructure mode for authentication.

 

WPA/WPA2 - Enables the IEEE 802.1x authentication mode. This mode is for 

environments with Remote Access Dial-in User Service (Radius). In a RADIUS 

environment, various Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) are supported, 

including PEAP, TLS/Smart Card, TTLS, and LEAP.

Data Encryption - In the Open and Shared authentication modes, options are: 

Disabled and WEP.
 

Disabled - Disables the encryption protection for your WLAN card.

 

WEP - Encrypts the data before it is transmitted over the air. You can 

communicate with wireless devices that use the same WEP keys.

In the WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication modes, options are: Temporal Key 

Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).
 

TKIP - Dynamically generates unique keys to encrypt data packet.  

 

AES - Offers stronger protection and increases the complexity of wireless 

encryption. It is a symmetric 128-bit block encryption method that works 

simultaneously on multiple network layers.
