None: Available only when the authentication type is open system.

64 bits WEP: Consists of 10 hexadecimal numbers.

128 bits WEP: Consists of 26 hexadecimal numbers.

152 bits WEP: Consists of 32 hexadecimal numbers.

TKIP: Temporal Key Integrity Protocol, which is a kind of dynamic encryption, is co-used with WPA-PSK, etc.

AES: Advanced Encryption Standard; it is usually co-used with WPA2-PSK, WPA, WPA2, etc.

TKIP + AES: It allows for backwards compatibility with devices using TKIP.

NOTES:

We strongly recommend that you enable wireless security on your network.

You can establish communicaton only by setting the same Authentication, Data Encryption, and Key in the Wireless P-T-P Ethernet Extender and other associated wireless devices.
