Necessary Wireless Setting Information


This page explains the wireless setting information that you need to obtain before starting the setup.

  • In the following cases, you do not have to obtain the information detailed on this page:
    • If you plan to configure IB-54 using the auto wireless setup feature of your wireless router

To use IB-54 in your wireless network, IB-54 must have the same settings as your wireless router (Access Point).


  • For how to confirm each setting, please refer to the operation manual that came with your router or contact the manufacturer.
  • Depending on your wireless router, the auto wireless setup feature may need to be enabled manually. For details, refer to the operation manual that came with your wireless router.
  • If a security feature such as MAC Address filtering is enabled on your wireless router, disable it temporarily so that IB-54 can communicate with your wireless router. For details, refer to the operation manual that came with your wireless router.

Check the wireless setting information of your wireless router as follows:


SSID The SSID is an ID that distinguishes a wireless LAN network from others.
For wireless devices to communicate with each other on a wireless network, they must share the same SSID. (The SSID is also referred to as "ESSID".) Depending on your wireless router, it may have several SSIDs. If there are different SSIDs for a game console and computer, use the one for the computer.
Encryption Mode No Encryption Uses no encryption for wireless communication.
(In this case, you do not have to get any of your settings beforehand.)
WEP If WEP encryption is used, wireless communication will be encrypted using the settings for "WEP Key" and "Key Index".
Set the same "WEP Key" as your wireless router.
There are "Hexadecimal" and "Alphanumeric" to input the WEP key.
In most cases, alphanumeric characters are used.
Enter 5 characters if the key size is 64bit or 13 characters if the key size is 128bit.

For Hexadecimal, a value consists of numbers (0-9) and English letters (A-F). Enter a 10-digit value if the key size is 64bit or a 26-digit value if the key size is 128bit.


WEP Key Length

WEP Key Size
64bit
 128bit
Hexadecimal
 10 (digit) characters
 26 (digit) characters
Alphanumeric
 5 characters
 13 characters

WPA / WPA2 / WPA3
Personal 		Uses PSK for network authentication.
The encryption key will be generated by communicating with the wireless router using a Pre-Shared key. WEP key setting is not used for this mode. Set the same Pre-Shared key and Encryption Mode (TKIP/AES) as your wireless router. The Pre-Shared key is also referred to as "Network Key" or "Password".
In most case, alphanumeric characters are used (8-63 characters).
In the case of WPA-Personal and WPA2-Personal, a shared key can be set in "hexadecimal notation".
For Hexadecimal, enter a 64-character hexadecimal string consists of numbers (0-9) and English letters (A-F).
WPA / WPA2 / WPA3
Enterprise 		An external authentication server (RADIUS) is used for network authentication.
PEAP, EAP-TLS, EAP-TTLS, and EAP-FAST methods are supported.
You must select the method supported by the server used for authentication, and specify the certificate and user ID/password accordingly.
  • WPA3-Enterprise 192bit security is not supported.

‹L†
  • On some models, WPA3-Personal/WPA3-Enterprise can only be configured when setting the method from the web page.
