This option requires you to enter an encryption key shared by the access point.

WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)

Both the Open and Shared Authentication modes require WEP security. The most recent assessments of WEP advise choosing Open rather than Shared.

If the devices in your network do not support WPA2-PSK or WPA-PSK, select Open with WEP data encryption.

This method requires you to enter an encryption key. The keys can be 64, 128 or 256 bits in length.

WPA2

If you are linking to a corporate network that accesses a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) authentication server, and if the devices in the network support WPA2, select WPA2. This option provides security with AES (Advanced Encryption Standard). AES has a key size of 128, 192, or 256-bits. In order for eavesdroppers to decipher a message, they would have to try every possible key.

WPA is an option for corporate users who access a RADIUS (Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service) authentication server that does not support WPA2. WPA provides security with TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol), which dynamically changes keys as the system is used.
