Open Authentication and Shared Key Authentication are the two authentication modes. The access point and client authentication modes must match for any communication to take place.

In Open Authentication mode, the AP verifies the client’s identity regardless of the WEP key, thus the client and the AP will always associate. Communication takes place only if the WEP keys of the client and the AP match.

In Shared Key Authentication, the WEP key must match for the AP to verify and communicate with the client.
