ParameterDescription
Profile NameDefine a recognizable profile name for you to identify the different networks you are saving
Network Name (SSID)The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name for the wireless network you are saving. The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located wireless networks.You may specify a SSID for the adapter and then only the device with the same SSID can interconnect to the adapter.
This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network; wireless access points are not used.There are two kinds of network type described as follows.Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence of an 802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the Access Point or Router.Ad Hoc – Connect directly to another wireless adapter in the Wireless LAN network without going through a router or access point.If this item is selected, the adapter will work in Ad Hoc mode.
ChannelThis setting is only available for Ad Hoc mode. Select the number of the radio channel used for the ad hoc connection.The channel setting should be the same with the computer you are connecting with.
Network AuthenticationThis setting has to be consistent with the wireless networks that the adapter intends to connect to.Open System – No authentication is needed among the wireless network.Shared Key – Only wireless stations using a shared key (WEP Key identified) are allowed to connect with each other.WPA-PSK – Designed for home and small business users who do not have access to network authentication servers. In this mode, known as Pre-Shared Key, the user manually enters the starting password in their access point or gateway, as well as in each wireless station in the network. WPA-PSK takes over automatically from that point, keeping unauthorized users that don’t have the matching password from joining the network, while encrypting the data traveling between authorized devices.WPA2-PSK – WPA2-PSK is also for home and small business. The difference between WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK is that WPA2-PSK provides data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA-PSK uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) which is not fully certified. AES is recommended.WPA 802.1X – WPA provides a scheme of mutual authentication using either IEEE 802.1x/Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication or pre-shared key (PSK) technology. It provides a high level of assurance to enterprises, small businesses and home users that data will remain protected and that only authorized users may access their networks. For enterprises that have already deployed IEEE 802.1x authentication, WPA offers the advantage of leveraging existing authentication databases and infrastructure.WPA2 802.1X – Like WPA, WPA2 supports IEEE 802.1 x/EAP authentications or PSK technology. It also includes a new advanced encryption mechanism using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is required to the corporate user or government users. The difference between WPA and WPA2 is thatWPA2 provides data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPAuses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).WEP 802.1X – It's a special mode for using IEEE 802.1x/EAP technology for authentication and WEP keys for data encryption.
Data EncryptionDisabled – Disable the WEP Data Encryption.WEP – Enable the WEP Data Encryption. When the item is selected, you have to continue setting the WEP Encryption keys.TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (Note: This mode is not certified. Performance may vary under this setting.)AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the wireless network.Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption method to ensure the communication.
ASCIIWEP Key can be ASCII format. Alphanumeric values or signs are allowed to be the WEP key. It is more recognizable for user.
PASSPHRASEIt is a text string with a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters, for example: “Test“. The WEP Key is based upon the Passphrase determined by you. This passphrase may not work with other vendors’ products due to possible incompatibility with other vendors’ passphrase generators. You must use the same passphrase or WEP key settings for all wireless computers within the network.
Key LengthWhen you select the “WEP and “PASSPHRASE” and this function will display in the current status of the utility.The keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless network. Fill the text box by following the rules below.64-bit – Input 10-digit Hex values as the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef”.128-bit – Input 26-digit Hex values as the encryption keys. For example: “01234567890123456789abcdef”.
Key Index(advanced)Select one of the four keys to be the data encryption key.
Network KeyPlease enter network security key here to make sure the password is correct.
ConfirmNetwork KeyPlease enter network security key here again.
EAP TypeGTC – GTC is an authentication protocol which allows the exchange of clear text authentication credentials across the network.TLS – TLS is the most secure of the EAP protocols but not easy to use. It requires that digital certificates be exchanged in the authentication phase. The server presents a certificate to the client. After validating the server's certificate, the client presents a client certificate to the server for validation.LEAP – LEAP is a pre-EAP, Cisco-proprietary protocol, with many of the features of EAP protocols. Cisco controls the ability of other vendors to implement this protocol, so it should be selected for use only when limited vendor choice for client, access-point, and server products is not a concern. When you have set up LEAP authentication, you have to enter the user name and password of your computer.PEAP & TTLS – PEAP and TTLS are similar and easier than TLS in that they specify a stand-alone authentication protocol be used within an encrypted tunnel. TTLS supports any protocol within its tunnel, including CHAP, MSCHAP, MSCHAPv2 and PAP. PEAP specifies that an EAP-compliant authentication protocol must be used; this adaptor supports MD5, TLS, GTC (Generic Token Card) and MSCHAPv2. The client certificate is optional required for the authentication.
Tunnel IncludesMD5, GTC, TLS, and MSCHAP-v2.
Username Thecertificate username in the RADIUS server.
IdentityUser's identity in the RADIUS server.

Profile Properties Profile Name : HawkTechc SSID : HawkTechc This is a computer-to-computer (AdHoc) network; wireless access points are not used. Channel : 1: 2412 MHz Wireless Network Security Properties This network requires a key for the following : Network Authentication : WPA_PSK Data Encryption : TKIP ASCII Network key : Confirm network key : Key index (advanced) : 1 OK Cancel

ParameterDescription
Profile NameDefine a recognizable profile name for you to identify the different networks
Network Name (SSID)The SSID (up to 32 printable ASCII characters) is the unique name identified in a WLAN. The ID prevents the unintentional merging of two co-located WLANs.You may specify a SSID for the adapter and then only the device with the same SSID can interconnect to the adapter.
This is a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network; wireless access points are not used.There are two kinds of network type described as follows.Infrastructure – This operation mode requires the presence of an 802.11 Access Point. All communication is done via the Access Point or Router.Ad Hoc – Connect to another wireless adapter in the Wireless LAN network without through an Access Point or Router.If this item is selected, the adapter will work in Ad Hoc mode.
ChannelThis setting is only available for Ad Hoc mode. Select the number of the radio channel used for the networking. The channel setting should be the same with the network you are connecting to.
Network AuthenticationThis setting has to be consistent with the wireless networks that the adapter intends to connect.Open System – No authentication is needed among the wireless network.Shared Key – Only wireless stations using a shared key (WEP Keyidentified) are allowed to connecting each other.WPA-PSK – It is a special mode designed for home and small business users who do not have access to network authentication servers. In this mode, known as Pre-Shared Key, the user manually enters the starting password in their access point or gateway, as well as in each wireless station in the network. WPA-PSK takes over automatically from that point, keeping unauthorized users that don't have the matching password from joining the network, while encrypting the data traveling between authorized devices.WPA2-PSK – WPA2-PSK is also for home and small business. The difference between WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK is that WPA2-PSK provides data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA-PSK uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).WPA 802.1X – WPA provides a scheme of mutual authentication using either IEEE 802.1x/Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP) authentication or pre-shared key (PSK) technology. It provides a high level of assurance to enterprises, small businesses and home users that data will remain protected and that only authorized users may access their networks. For enterprises that have already deployed IEEE 802.1x authentication, WPA offers the advantage of leveraging existing authentication databases and infrastructure.WPA2 802.1X – Like WPA, WPA2 supports IEEE 802.1 x/EAP authentications or PSK technology. It also includes a new advanced encryption mechanism using the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES). AES is required to the corporate user or government users. The difference between WPA and WPA2 is that WPA2 provides data encryption via the AES. In contrast, WPA uses Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).WEP 802.1X – It's a special mode for using IEEE 802.1x/EAP technology for authentication and WEP keys for data encryption.
Data EncryptionDisabled – Disable the WEP Data Encryption.WEP – Enable the WEP Data Encryption. When the item is selected, you have to continue setting the WEP Encryption keys.TKIP – TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the temporal key every 10,000 packets (a packet is a kind of message transmitted over a network.) This insures much greater security than the standard WEP security. (Note: This mode is not certified. Performance may vary under this setting.)AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the wireless network.Note: All devices in the network should use the same encryption method to ensure the communication.
ASCIIWEP Key can be ASCII format. Alphanumeric values or signs are allowed to be the WEP key. It is more recognizable for user.
PASSPHRASEIt is a text string with a maximum of 32 alphanumeric characters, for example: “Test”. The WEP Key is based upon the Passphrase determined by you. This passphrase may not work with other vendors' products due to possible incompatibility with other vendors' passphrase generators. You must use the same passphrase or WEP key settings for all wireless computers within the network.
Key LengthWhen you select the “WEP and “PASSPHRASE” and this function will display in the current status of the utility.The keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless network.Fill the text box by following the rules below.64-bit – Input 10-digit Hex values as the encryption keys. For example: “0123456aef”.128-bit – Input 26-digit Hex values as the encryption keys. For example: “01234567890123456789abcdef”.
Key Index (advanced) Select one of the four keys to be the data encryption key.
Network KeyPlease enter network security key here to make sure the password is correct.
Confirm Network Key Please enter network security key here again.
EAP TypeGTC – GTC is an authentication protocol which allows the exchange of clear text authentication credentials across the network.TLS – TLS is the most secure of the EAP protocols but not easy to use. It requires that digital certificates be exchanged in the authentication phase. The server presents a certificate to the client. After validating the server's certificate, the client presents a client certificate to the server for validation.LEAP – LEAP is a pre-EAP, Cisco-proprietary protocol, with many of the features of EAP protocols. Cisco controls the ability of other vendors to implement this protocol, so it should be selected for use only when limited vendor choice for client, access-point, and server products is not a concern. When you have set up LEAP authentication, you have to enter the user name and password of your computer.PEAP & TTLS – PEAP and TTLS are similar and easier than TLS in that they specify a stand-alone authentication protocol be used within an encrypted tunnel. TTLS supports any protocol within its tunnel, including CHAP, MSCHAP, MSCHAPv2 and PAP. PEAP specifies that an EAP-compliant authentication protocol must be used; this adaptor supports MD5, TLS, GTC (Generic Token Card) and MSCHAPv2. The client

certificate is optional required for the authentication.

The Link Status page gives you information regarding your current wireless channel, transmit rate (speed) and link/signal quality. You will use this utility to figure out which antenna position results in the best performance and connection.

Obtaining the Strongest Connection

  • First you must determine where the location of your Wireless Access Point is within your network.
  • Position the directional antenna towards the location of the Access Point.
  • While viewing your Link Status utility, rotate the antenna clockwise and counter-clockwise slowly to figure out which position gives you the highest Link Quality and Signal Strength. Once you have determined which position gives you the best signal, leave the antenna in that orientation

V. INDEX

This chapter provides solutions to problems usually encountered during the installation and operation of the adapter.

1. What is the IEEE 802.11n standard?

802.11n is an IEEE 802.11 wireless network standard that increases transmission speeds from a traditional 11Mbps (802.11b) to over 100Mbps. Currently, the HWU9DD supports up to 150Mbps.

802.11n can handle legacy 11a, 11b and 11g transmission in a mixed mode or only 11n nodes for maximum performance. It supports the 2.4GHz and 5GHz frequency bands.

The key to the 802.11n standard is the use of multiple antennas, known as MIMO (Multiple input/multiple output). MIMO technology enables two data streams, transmitter and receiver, to be sent simultaneously over longer distances and to improve the overall system performance.

2. What does IEEE 802.11 feature support?

The product supports the following IEEE 802.11 functions:

• CSMA/CA plus Acknowledge Protocol
- Multi-Channel Roaming
• Automatic Rate Selection
- RTS/CTS Feature
- Fragmentation
• Power Management

3. What is Ad-hoc?

An Ad-hoc integrated wireless LAN is a group of computers, each has a Wireless LAN adapter, Connected as an independent wireless LAN. Ad hoc wireless LAN is applicable at a departmental scale for a branch or SOHO operation.

4. What is Infrastructure?

An integrated wireless and wireless and wired LAN is called an Infrastructure configuration. Infrastructure is applicable to enterprise scale for wireless access to central database, or wireless application for mobile workers.

5. What is BSS ID?

A specific Ad hoc LAN is called a Basic Service Set (BSS). Computers in a BSS must be configured with the same BSS ID.

6. What is WEP?

WEP is Wired Equivalent Privacy, a data privacy mechanism based on a 40 bit shared key algorithm, as described in the IEEE 802.11 standard.

7. What is TKIP?

TKIP is a quick-fix method to quickly overcome the inherent weaknesses in WEP security, especially the reuse of encryption keys. TKIP is involved in the IEEE 802.11i WLAN security standard, and the specification might be officially released by early 2003.

8. What is AES?

AES (Advanced Encryption Standard), a chip-based security, has been developed to ensure the highest degree of security and authenticity for digital information, wherever and however communicated or stored, while making more efficient use of hardware and/or software than previous encryption standards. It is also included in IEEE 802.11i standard. Compare with AES, TKIP is a temporary protocol for replacing WEP security until manufacturers implement AES at the hardware level.

9. Can Wireless products support printer sharing?

Wireless products perform the same function as LAN products. Therefore, Wireless products can work with Netware, Windows 2000, or other LAN operating systems to support printer or file sharing.

10. Would the information be intercepted while transmitting on air?

WLAN features two-fold protection in security. On the hardware side, as with Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum technology, it has the inherent security feature of scrambling. On the software side, WLAN series offer the encryption function (WEP) to enhance security and Access Control. Users can set it up depending upon their needs.

11. What is DSSS? What is FHSS? And what are their differences?

Frequency-hopping spread-spectrum (FHSS) uses a narrowband carrier that changes frequency in a pattern that is known to both transmitter and receiver. Properly synchronized, the net effect is to maintain a single logical channel. To an unintended receiver, FHSS appears to be short-duration impulse noise. Direct-sequence spread-spectrum (DSSS) generates a redundant bit pattern for each bit to be transmitted. This bit pattern is called a chip (or chipping code). The longer the chip is, the greater the probability that the original data can be recovered. Even if one or more bits in the chip are damaged during transmission, statistical techniques embedded in the radio can recover the original data without-the need for retransmission. To an unintended receiver, DSSS appears as low power wideband noise and is rejected (ignored) by most narrowband receivers.

12. What is Spread Spectrum?

Spread Spectrum technology is a wideband radio frequency technique developed by the military for use in reliable, secure, mission-critical communication systems. It is designed to trade off bandwidth efficiency for reliability, integrity, and security. In other words, more bandwidth is consumed than in the case of narrowband transmission, but the trade off produces a signal that is, in effect, louder and thus easier to detect, provided that the receiver knows the parameters of the spread-spectrum signal being broadcast. If a receiver is not tuned to the right frequency, a spread –spectrum signal looks like background noise. There are two main alternatives, Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) and Frequency Hopping Spread Spectrum (FHSS).

13. What is Hi-Gain and dBi?

Hi-Gain is Hawking Technologies' high performance wireless distance extending product line. It encompasses a group of products and technologies used to help solve distance issues accompanied with Wi-Fi products. A unit of measurement on antenna strength and power is dBi. The higher the dBi or gain level of an antenna the more powerful it is.

14. What is the difference between directional and omni-directional antennas?

Directional and omni-directional antennas determine the wireless output pattern of antennas. In standard installations it is normally the wireless access point that uses the omni-directional antenna (360 degree wireless output) whiles the clients (desktop or laptops) that use the directional antennas (concentrated narrow wireless signal) to create a stronger link directly to the access point.

15. How do I get an Optimal Wireless Connection with the HWU9DD?

If pointing the antenna directly at the access point is not providing a sufficient signal connection then you can try bouncing the signals off walls. Wireless signals can reflect off walls or through windows to get to their desired location so try different positions to find the best antenna orientation for your network.
