Paxar 9825 operating instructions WPA2

WEP or	A security protocol for wireless local area networks. WEP
Wired Equivalent	was designed to provide the same level of security as that
Privacy	of a wired network, which is inherently more secure than a
	wireless network because wired networks are easily
	protected against unauthorized access. Wireless networks
	use radio waves to communicate and can be vulnerable to
	unauthorized users.
	WEP provides security by encrypting data over radio waves
	so that it is protected as it is transmitted. However, it has
	been found that WEP is not as secure as once believed.
	Note: If one part of a wireless network has WEP enabled,
	they all must have it enabled with the same key or they
	cannot communicate.
128 Bit / 64 Bit	This is the 64 or 128 bit WEP key that must match other
WEP Key	Nodes’ encryption keys in order to communicate: 10 hex
	characters for 64 bit (40 user-specified characters), or 26
	hex characters for 128 bit (104 user-specified characters).
	You must use the same key values for devices to
	communicate with each other.
WLAN or Wireless	A LAN that uses high-frequency radio waves to
Local Area Network	communicate between nodes, rather than telephone wires,
	etc.
WPA (Wi-Fi	A network security protocol that uses improved
Protected Access)	authentication and temporal keys. It was created to
	address the weaknesses of WEP encryption.
WPA2	A network security protocol with stronger encryption than
(or IEEE 802.11i)	WPA. It was created to address the weaknesses of WEP
	encryption.
