Wireless LAN
“Use Wireless LAN”
Tick this check box to use a wireless LAN.
“Network Mode”
Select Ad-Hoc, “802.11 Ad-Hoc” or
Infrastructure mode.
“Channel”
If “Ad-Hoc” or “802.11 Ad-Hoc” is selected
as the network mode, select a number
from 1 to 14 as the channel to be used for
communication.
“ESS ID”
Enter the ESS ID. This setting is only
available when “802.11 Ad-Hoc” or
“Infrastructure” is selected as the network
mode. The ESS ID can consist of any
characters except for double quotation
marks (“).
“IP Address”
Enter a network interface-specific IP
address. Note that you cannot specify the
same IP address as that specified for the
Ethernet.
“Subnet Mask”
Enter the subnet mask specified for the
network to be connected.
“Transmission Rate”
Select the transmission rate.
“Use Station Authentication (EAP-MD5)”
Tick this check box when using a wireless
LAN access point and you wish to use the
IEEE802.1x authentication function. Once
ticked, specify the settings in “User Name”
and “Password” to be used for
authentication.
“Enable WEP”
For encrypted communication, set the
same encryption keys.
Select 64 bit or 128 bit as the “Key
Length” used, enter the encryption key
and then select the key to be used for
transmission in the “Default key”.
●
Contact the network administrator for the
IP address, subnet mask, and encryption
settings.
●
Match the WEP to the hexadecimal setting
for the communications access point. Only
hexadecimal values can be entered on the
VB150.
● If a wireless LAN is to be used, give serious consideration to the
installation location and communications security.
● If you are using a wireless LAN, take particular care with the IP address,
subnet mask and route settings. If errors are found in any of these items,
you may be completely unable to access the VB150 via a wireless LAN.
● When you change an IP address, please re-access the Settings Title Page
with the new IP address (→ P.35).
● Turn the VB150 off before you insert a wireless LAN card or a modem card.
● Physically different networks should be used for Ethernet and wireless LAN
connections.

Note
Two modes are used for wireless
LANs: “Ad-Hoc” mode and
“802.11 Ad-Hoc” mode for
communication between stations,
and “Infrastructure” mode for
access via access points. In each
case the same settings as for the
communication destination are
required.
