Paxar 9860 manual WPA2

WEP or	A security protocol for wireless local area networks. WEP was
Wired	designed to provide the same level of security as that of a
Equivalent	wired network, which is inherently more secure than a wireless
Privacy	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	A LAN that uses high-frequency radio waves to communicate
Wireless Local	between nodes, rather than telephone wires, etc.

WPA2

(or IEEE 802.11i)

A network security protocol that uses improved authentication and temporal keys. It was created to address the weaknesses of WEP encryption.

A network security protocol with stronger encryption than WPA. It was created to address the weaknesses of WEP encryption.
