WPA Encryption

WiFi Protected Access was designed to provide improved data encryption, perceived as weak in WEP, and to provide user authentication, largely nonexistent in WEP. There are two versions, WPA and WPA2; both are supported by the Access Point. WPA includes the option of using a Pre-Shared Key similar to WEP, or a RADIUS server can be used for verification. In addition, WPA2-Auto is offered for user convenience.
