Authentication Type
Description
To disable the WPA/WEP security.
Enter the key to encrypt wireless data. To allow encrypted data transmission, the WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as
the router. There are four keys for your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes are required for 64- bitWEP and 128-bitWEP respectively.
If you chose WEP 64-bits, then enter any 5 ASCII characters or 10 hexadecimal characters ("0-9","A-F").
If you chose WEP 128-bits, then enter 13 ASCII characters or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9","A-F").
You must configure all four keys, but only one key can be activated at any one time. The default key is key 1.
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is the newest and best available standard in Wi-Fi security. Two modes are available: Pre- Shared Key and RADIUS. Pre-Shared Key gives you a choice of two encryption methods: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol), which utilizes a stronger encryption method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against hackers, and AES (Advanced Encryption System), which utilizes a symmetric 128-Bit block data encryption.
Encryption: TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) utilizes a stronger encryption method and incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against
hackers.
Pre-Shared key: The key for network authentication. The input format is in character style and key size should be in the range between 8 and 64 characters.
