AT ARW256E User s Guide One of the configuration parameters transmitted to each network device is its default gateway This address is configured by the network administrators and it informs each personal computer or other network device where to send data if the target station does not reside on the same subnet as the source If your machine can reach all stations on the same subnet usually a building or a sector within a building but cannot communicate outside of this area it is usually because of an incorrectly configured default gateway What is SSID A service set identifier SSID is a sequence of characters that uniquely names a wireless local area network WLAN This name allows stations to connect to the desired network when multiple independent networks operate in the same physical area What is WEP Wired Equivalent Privacy WEP is a security protocol specified in the IEEE Wireless Fidelity Wi Fi standard 802 11b that is designed to provide a wireless local area network WLAN with a level of security and privacy comparable to what is usually expected of a wired LAN A wired local area network LAN is generally protected by physical security mechanisms controlled access to a building for example that are effective for a controlled physical environment but may be ineffective for WLANs because radio waves are not necessarily bound by the walls containing the network WEP seeks to establish similar protection to that offe
