Helpful Hints..
Wireless On/Off - Enable/Disable the wireless radio.

Wireless Network Name (SSID) - Specify the name of the wireless access point that the print server should connect to.
Wireless Mode - Select Infrastructure to connect to a LAN via a wireless Access Point (AP). Select Ad-hoc to connect directly to a Wi-Fi enabled workstation/laptop.

Transmission rate (Mbits/s) - This is the speed at which the station will transmit data. Normally you should select 'best' here, although if your wireless network is unusually noisy or quiet you may wish to use a fixed low or high rate. Note that the actual TX rate is doubled for turbo mode (values in brackets).
802.11 Mode - This setting controls the types of 802.11 wireless clients or stations that can connect to the print server.
Channel - This is the radio channel that the print server will use in ad-hoc mode. Note that 802.11g and 802.11b use only 2.4 GHz channels, and 802.11a uses only 5 GHz channels.

Super mode - Select Super G without Turbo to increase the effective wireless data rate via techniques such as bursting, fast frames, and compression. This mode will enhance performance without consuming an extra wireless channel. Select Dynamic Turbo mode to further enhance performance by combining two radio channels centered on channel 6. All participants in the wireless network must support Turbo mode before this feature will activate. Select Static Turbo to force Turbo mode. Use only if you are certain that all devices on the wireless network are Turbo enabled.

Security Mode - Select the security protocol used to encrypt data transmitted over the wireless connection. WPA is more secure than WEP, but not all access points support WPA.

PSK - Enter a text pass phrase between 8 and 63 characters.

Authentication - Select the type of authentication used when establishing a wireless connection.
Default Key - Select the default WEP key. The default key is used to encrypt outgoing data transmissions. The other keys are used to decrypt received data.
Key Length - Select the WEP key size. This length applies to all keys. Larger keys are more secure.
WEP Key - For 64 bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128 bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. A blank key is interpreted as a key of all zeros.
