Wireless Security Setup

Encrypting your wireless data is important to prevent other devices from being able to moni- tor your wireless data transmissions.

There are two options available TKIP or WEP. One or the other may be selected, or you can choose not to enable security and allow open movement of traffi c.

TKIP - check with your client adapter vendors to make sure that ALL of your wireless adapters sup- port this method of WPA encryption.

WEP - while most wireless adapters support WEP, it has been shown not to be as robust as TKIP, though it is considered adequate for home use.

Disabled - when security is disabled, clicking Continue will return you to the Home screen where other confi gurations can be made or you can Log Out of the access point and begin using your AirStation normally.
