Wireless-G Broadband Router with RangeBooster

PSK2. PSK2 is stronger than WPA Personal and gives you one encryption method, AES, with dynamic encryption keys. Enter a Passphrase of 8-63 characters. Then enter a Key Renewal period, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.

PSK2-Mixed. PSK2-Mixed gives you either WPA-Personal (TKIP) or PSK2 (AES) encryption. Enter a Passphrase of 8-63 characters. Then enter a Key Renewal period, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.

WPA Enterprise. This option features WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used when a RADIUS server is connected to the Router.) First, select the type of WPA encryption you want to use, TKIP or AES. Enter the RADIUS server’s IP Address and port number, along with a shared secret (authentication key) between the Router and the server. Last, enter a Key Renewal Timeout, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.
