Encryption

If you are transmitting sensitive data across wireless channels, you should enable encryption. Encryption requires you to use the same set of encryption/decryption keys for the Wireless Barricade and all of your wireless clients. You can choose between standard

64-bit or the more robust 128-bit encryption keys. However, please be aware that the extra processing time required for encryption may affect the throughput for wireless communications.
