Many networks use wireless security to encrypt wireless data communications. If you try to 
connect to a network with wireless security, the Smart Wizard detects it. Before you can use that 
network, you must set up the WNDA3100v2 with exactly the same kind of wireless security 
settings. If you use the Smart Wizard to set up security, you can take advantage of Push 'N' 
Connect (WPS) to set up WPS2/WPA security (see 

). Otherwise, you can select from the following main types of wireless 

security used for home networks:

•

Wi-Fi Protected Access 2 Pre-Shared Key (WPA2-PSK)

•

Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK)

•

Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP)

For more information about wireless security, see the wireless reference document at

You can strengthen the security of your wireless connection by enabling Wired Equivalent Privacy 
(WEP) encryption of the wireless data communications, or you can use WPA-PSK (Wi-Fi 
Protected Access Pre-Shared Key) encryption. For more information about wireless security, see 
the link to 

In addition to the WNDA3100v2 wireless security features, NETGEAR recommends that you also 
configure appropriate LAN network security features such as requiring a user name and password 
to access the shared resources in your network.

Network Name (SSID). The service set Identification (SSID) identifies the wireless local area 
network. Any

 

is the default WNDA3100v2 wireless network name 

(SSID). You may customize it using up to 32 alphanumeric characters. Write your customized 
wireless network name (SSID) on the line below. 

Note: The SSID in the wireless access point is the SSID you configure in the wireless 

USB adapter. For the access point and wireless nodes to communicate with 
each other, all must be configured with the same SSID.
