9.Configure the wireless security settings. Select the method your network is using, WPA, WPA2, WEP (128-Bit), or WEP (64-Bit). Then proceed to the appropriate instructions. If you are not using wireless security, select Disabled, and proceed to step 10.

WPA

WPA automatically uses TKIP with dynamic encryption keys. Enter a passphrase on this screen. Encryption - TKIP is automatically selected as the encryption method.

Passphrase - Enter a Passphrase, also called a pre-shared key, of 8-63 characters in the Passphrase field. The longer and more complex your Passphrase is, the more secure your network will be.

Click Next to proceed, or click Back to return to the previous screen.

WPA2

WPA2 automatically uses AES with dynamic encryption keys (AES is a stronger encryption method than TKIP). Enter a passphrase on this screen.

Encryption - AES is automatically selected as the encryption method.

Passphrase - Enter a Passphrase, also called a pre-shared key, of 8-63 characters in the Passphrase field. The longer and more complex your Passphrase is, the more secure your network will be.

Click Next to proceed, or click Back to return to the previous screen.
