WPA Version

Choices are WPA, WPA2 or WPA Auto. When WPA-Auto is selected, the

 

wireless client decides the version of WPA will be used.

 

WPA is the recommended default for best compatibility. WiFi WPA-capable

 

PDAs and other gadgets are usually limited to WPA + TKIP. WPA2 is an

 

advanced option. WPA2 support on Windows requires a Microsoft patch and

 

is only available on Windows XP with Service pack 2 or later.

 

WPA-Auto is an advanced option. Only the best WPA

 

802.11i-conforming/WiFi WPA-certified client devices can operate in this

 

mode.

 

 

WPA Authentication

PSK mode is suitable for home or personal use. 802.1x mode uses the

 

network radius server to verify user identity. The auto mode offers both

 

options for the wireless client to pick.
