card. For data confidentiality in a wireless  
environment, IEEE 802.11 specifies a  
Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP) algorithm  
to offer transmission privacy similar to  
wired network. WEP uses keys to encrypt  
data packets sent and decrypt data packets  
received. The encryption process can scramble frame bits to avoid disclosure to  
others. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an improved security system for 802.11  
that encrypts data sent over radio waves. WPA is developed to overcome the  
weakness of the WEP protocol.  
Network Authentication - Set up authentication for your WLAN card. Options are:  
Open - Sets the network operating in the Open System mode that disables  
authentication protection for the network or use the WEP encryption for the  
network.  
Shared - Sets the network operating in the Shared Key mode that uses the  
WEP encryption for your network.  
WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK - Use the WPA Pre-Shared Key/WPA2 Pre-Shared Key  
in the Infrastructure mode for authentication.  
Data Encryption - In the Open and Shared authentication modes, options are:  
Disabled and WEP.  
Disabled - Disables the encryption protection for your WLAN card.  
WEP - Encrypts the data before it is transmitted over the air. You can  
communicate with wireless devices that use the same WEP keys.  
In the WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK authentication modes, options are: Temporal Key  
Integrity Protocol (TKIP) and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES).  
TKIP - Dynamically generates unique keys to encrypt data packet.  
AES - Offers stronger protection and increases the complexity of wireless  
encryption. It is a symmetric 128-bit block encryption method that works  
simultaneously on multiple network layers.

COFDM (for 802.11a or 802.11g)  
Signal power alone is not enough to maintain 802.11b-like distances in an  
802.11a/g environment. To compensate, a new physical-layer encoding technology  
was designed that departs from the traditional direct-sequence technology being  
deployed today. This technology is called COFDM (coded OFDM). COFDM was  
developed specifically for indoor wireless use and offers performance much  
superior to that of spread-spectrum solutions. COFDM works by breaking one  
high-speed data carrier into several lowerspeed subcarriers, which are then  
transmitted in parallel. Each high-speed carrier is 20MHz wide and is broken  
up into 52 subchannels, each approximately 300KHz wide. COFDM uses 48 of  
these subchannels for data, while the remaining four are used for error correction.  
COFDM delivers higher data rates and a high degree of multipath reflection  
recovery, thanks to its encoding scheme and error correction.  
Each subchannel in the COFDM implementation is about 300KHz wide. At the  
low end of the speed gradient, BPSK (binary phase shift keying) is used to  
encode 125Kbps of data per channel, resulting in a 6,000Kbps, or 6Mbps, data  
rate. Using quadrature phase shift keying, you can double the amount of data  
encoded to 250Kbps per channel, yielding a 12Mbps data rate. And by using  
16-level quadrature amplitude modulation encoding 4bits per hertz, you can  
achieve a data rate of 24Mbps. The 802.11a/g standard specifies that all 802.11a/  
g-compliant products must support these basic data rates. The standard also lets  
the vendor extend the modulation scheme beyond 24Mbps. Remember, the more  
bits per cycle (hertz) that are encoded, the more susceptible the signal will be to  
interference and fading, and ultimately, the shorter the range, unless power output  
is increased.  
Default Key  
This option allows you to select the default WEP key. This option allows you to  
use WEP keys without having to remember or write them down. The WEP keys  
generated using the Pass Phrase is compatible with other WLAN products. The  
Pass Phrase option is not as secure as manual assignment.  
Device Name  
Also known as DHCP client ID or network name. Sometimes provided by an ISP  
when using DHCP to assign addresses.  
DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol)  
This protocol allows a computer (or many computers on your network) to be  
automatically assigned a single IP address from a DHCP server.

DNS Server Address (Domain Name System)  
DNS allows Internet host computers to have a domain name and one or more IP  
addresses. A DNS server keeps a database of host computers and their respective  
domain names and IP addresses, so that when a user enters a domain name into  
the Internet browser, the user is sent to the proper IP address. The DNS server  
address used by the computers on your home network is the location of the DNS  
server your ISP has assigned.  
DSL Modem (Digital Subscriber Line)  
A DSL modem uses your existing phone lines to transmit data at high speeds.  
Direct-Sequence Spread Spectrum (for 802.11b)  
Spread spectrum (broadband) uses a narrowband signal to spread the transmission  
over a segment of the radio frequency band or spectrum. Direct-sequence is a  
spread spectrum technique where the transmitted signal is spread over a particular  
frequency range.  
Direct-sequence systems communicate by continuously transmitting a redundant  
pattern of bits called a chipping sequence. Each bit of transmitted data is mapped  
into chips and rearranged into a pseudorandom spreading code to form the  
chipping sequence. The chipping sequence is combined with a transmitted data  
stream to produce the output signal.  
Wireless mobile clients receiving a direct-sequence transmission use the spreading  
code to map the chips within the chipping sequence back into bits to recreate the  
original data transmitted by the wireless device. Intercepting and decoding a direct-  
sequence transmission requires a predefined algorithm to associate the spreading  
code used by the transmitting wireless device to the receiving wireless mobile  
client.  
This algorithm is established by IEEE 802.11b specifications. The bit redundancy  
within the chipping sequence enables the receiving wireless mobile client to  
recreate the original data pattern, even if bits in the chipping sequence are  
corrupted by interference. The ratio of chips per bit is called the spreading ratio.  
A high spreading ratio increases the resistance of the signal to interference. A  
low spreading ratio increases the bandwidth available to the user. The wireless  
device uses a constant chip rate of 11Mchips/s for all data rates, but uses different  
modulation schemes to encode more bits per chip at the higher data rates. The  
wireless device is capable of an 11 Mbps data transmission rate, but the coverage  
area is less than a 1 or 2 Mbps wireless device since coverage area decreases as  
bandwidth increases.

Encryption  
This provides wireless data transmissions with a level of security. This option  
allows you to specify a 64-bit or a 128-bit WEP key. A 64-bit encryption contains  
10 hexadecimal digits or 5 ASCII characters. A 128-bit encryption contains 26  
hexadecimal digits or 13 ASCII characters.  
64-bit and 40-bit WEP keys use the same encryption method and can interoperate  
on wireless networks. This lower level of WEP encryption uses a 40-bit (10  
hexadecimal digits assigned by the user) secret key and a 24-bit Initialization  
Vector assigned by the device. 104-bit and 128-bit WEP keys use the same  
encryption method.  
All wireless clients in a network must have identical WEP keys with the access  
point to establish connection. Keep a record of the WEP encryption keys.  
Extended Service Set (ESS)  
A set of one or more interconnected basic service set (BSSs) and integrated local  
area networks (LANs) can be configured as an Extended Service Set.  
ESSID (Extended Service Set Identifier)  
You must have the same ESSID entered into the gateway and each of its wireless  
clients. The ESSID is a unique identifier for your wireless network.  
Ethernet  
The most widely used LAN access method, which is defined by the IEEE 802.3  
standard. Ethernet is normally a shared media LAN meaning all devices on the  
network segment share total bandwidth. Ethernet networks operate at 10Mbps  
using CSMA/CD to run over 10-BaseT cables.  
Firewall  
A firewall determines which information passes in and out of a network. NAT can  
create a natural firewall by hiding a local network’s IP addresses from the Internet.  
A Firewall prevents anyone outside of your network from accessing your computer  
and possibly damaging or viewing your files.  
Gateway

and receive e-mail messages and access the web as if it were connected directly  
to the Internet.  
IEEE  
The Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers. The IEEE sets standards  
for networking, including Ethernet LANs. IEEE standards ensure interoperability  
between systems of the same type.  
IEEE 802.11  
IEEE 802.xx is a set of specifications for LANs from the Institute of Electrical  
and Electronic Engineers (IEEE). Most wired networks conform to 802.3, the  
specification for CSMA/CD based Ethernet networks or 802.5, the specification for  
token ring networks. 802.11 defines the standard for wireless LANs encompassing  
three incompatible (non-interoperable) technologies: Frequency Hopping Spread  
Spectrum (FHSS), Direct Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS), and Infrared. 802.11  
specifies a carrier sense media access control and physical layer specifications for  
1 and 2 Mbps wireless LANs.  
IEEE 802.11a (54Mbits/sec)  
Compared with 802.11b: The 802.11b standard was designed to operate in the  
2.4GHz ISM (Industrial, Scientific and Medical) band using direct-sequence  
spreadspectrum technology. The 802.11a standard, on the other hand, was  
designed to operate in the more recently allocated 5-GHz UNII (Unlicensed  
National Information Infrastructure) band. And unlike 802.11b, the 802.11a standard  
departs from the traditional spread-spectrum technology, instead using a frequency  
division multiplexing scheme that’s intended to be friendlier to office environments.  
The 802.11a standard, which supports data rates of up to 54 Mbps, is the Fast  
Ethernet analog to 802.11b, which supports data rates of up to 11 Mbps. Like  
Ethernet and Fast Ethernet, 802.11b and 802.11a use an identical MAC (Media  
Access Control). However, while Fast Ethernet uses the same physical-layer  
encoding scheme as Ethernet (only faster), 802.11a uses an entirely different  
encoding scheme, called OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing).  
The 802.11b spectrum is plagued by saturation from wireless phones, microwave  
ovens and other emerging wireless technologies, such as Bluetooth. In contrast,  
802.11a spectrum is relatively free of interference.  
27

PCE-N53 Wireless Dual-band Card Manual  
The 802.11a standard gains some of its performance from the higher frequencies  
at which it operates. The laws of information theory tie frequency, radiated power  
and distance together in an inverse relationship. Thus, moving up to the 5GHz  
spectrum from 2.4GHz will lead to shorter distances, given the same radiated  
power and encoding scheme.  
802.11a is a standard for access points and radio  
Compared with 802.11g:  
NICs that is ahead of 802.11g in the market by about six months. 802.11a operates  
in the 5GHz frequency band with twelve separate non-overlapping channels. As  
a result, you can have up to twelve access points set to different channels in the  
same area without them interfering with each other. This makes access point  
channel assignment much easier and significantly increases the throughput the  
wireless LAN can deliver within a given area. In addition, RF interference is much  
less likely because of the less-crowded 5GHz band.  
IEEE 802.11b (11Mbits/sec)  
In 1997, the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) adopted the  
802.11 standard for wireless devices operating in the 2.4 GHz frequency band.  
This standard includes provisions for three radio technologies: direct sequence  
spread spectrum, frequency hopping spread spectrum, and infrared. Devices that  
comply with the 802.11 standard operate at a data rate of either 1 or 2 Mbps.  
In 1999, the IEEE created the 802.11b standard. 802.11b is essentially identical  
to the 802.11 standard except 802.11b provides for data rates of up to 11Mbps for  
direct sequence spread spectrum devices. Under 802.11b, direct sequence devices  
can operate at 11Mbps, 5.5Mbps, 2Mbps, or 1Mbps. This provides interoperability  
with existing 802.11 direct sequence devices that operate only at 2Mbps.  
Direct sequence spread spectrum devices spread a radio signal over a range of  
frequencies. The IEEE 802.11b specification allocates the 2.4GHz frequency band  
into 14 overlapping operating Channels. Each Channel corresponds to a different  
set of frequencies.  
IEEE 802.11g  
802.11g is a new extension to 802.11b (used in majority of wireless LANs today)  
that broadens 802.11b’s data rates to 54 Mbps within the 2.4 GHz band using  
OFDM (orthogonal frequency division multiplexing) technology. 802.11g allows  
backward compatibility with 802.11b devices but only at 11 Mbps or lower,  
depending on the range and presence of obstructions.  
Infrastructure  
A wireless network centered about an access point. In this environment, the access  
point not only provides communication with the wired network but also mediates  
wireless network traffic in the immediate neighborhood.

MAC Address (Media Access Control)  
A MAC address is the hardware address of a device connected to a network.  
NAT (Network Address Translation)  
NAT masks a local network’s group of IP addresses from the external network,  
allowing a local network of computers to share a single ISP account. This process  
allows all of the computers on your home network to use one IP address. This will  
enable access to the Internet from any computer on your home network without  
having to purchase more IP addresses from your ISP.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access)  
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an improved security system for 802.11. It is part  
of the 802.11i draft security standard. WPA encompasses TKIP (Temporal Key  
Integrity Protocol) along with MIC (Message Integrity Check) and other fixes to  
WEP such as Weak IV (Initialization Vector) filtering and Random IV generation.  
TKIP uses 802.1x to deploy and change temporary keys as opposed to static  
WEP keys once used in the past. It is a significant improvement over WEP. WPA  
is part of a complete security solution. WPA also requires authentication servers in  
enterprise security solutions.  
Requirements  
(1) A WPA compatible Access Point or Wireless router, (2) Operating system  
updates that support WPA. In XP, an updated Windows Zero Config service is  
needed. Users can download the Windows XP WPA patch here:
