Wireless Security Configuration

5-1

This chapter describes how to configure the security features of your NETGEAR Super AG 
Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter WG111U.

For a full discussion of wireless security technologies, please see 

. The WG111U configuration utility provides the following security 

options:

WEP
Wired Equivalent Privacy is an existing, widely implemented and supported, data encryption 
protocol for 802.11 wireless networks. All wireless nodes on the network are configured with 
a static 64-bit or 128-bit Shared Key for data encryption but authentication is optional. 

WPA-PSK
WPA Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK) performs authentication and strong data encryption that 
includes dynamic key generation based on a pre-shared key. WPA-PSK does not need 
RADIUS or certificate servers.

When you use the WG111U configuration utility to configure these security options, you can save 
your settings in a profile. For example, if you use WPA-PSK at work but WEP at home, you can 
have work and home profiles that make it easy to switch from one environment to the other. For 
more information on configuring profiles, see 

.

Note: The instructions in this section refer to the NETGEAR WG111U configuration 
utility. For Windows XP users to use the NETGEAR configuration utility, the Windows 
XP configuration utility must be deselected. If you did not enable the NETGEAR utility 
when you installed the WG111U Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter, open the network 
connections from the system tray icon, click the Properties button, click the Wireless 
Networks tab and then clear the “Use Windows to configure my wireless network 
settings” check box.
