WPA pre-shared key

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use a pre-

shared key to authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during communication.

It uses TKIP or CCMP(AES) to change the encryption key frequently. So the

encryption key is not easy to be broken by hackers. This can improve security very

much. You can use WPA pre-shared key encryption in “AP mode”, “Station-Ad Hoc

mode”, “Stat ion-I n f r astr uc tu r e mode”, “AP Bridge-WDS m od e” and “Univers al

Repeater mode”.
