device does not support WPA or WPA2.
WPA Personal: Use for WPA-level encryption.

WPA+WPA2 Personal: Enables both WPA- and WPA2-level wireless
protected access modes.
Password: Specify a password for your wireless network.
Show Plain Password: Check the box to make the password visible.
Beacon Interval: Enter the time in milliseconds between beacon
transmissions. The default interval is 100 milliseconds.
RTS Threshold: The Request to Send (RTS) threshold is the packet size
in bytes above which the DWR-956 is required to check the
transmitting frames to determine if RTS/Clear to Send (CTS) handshake
is required with the receiving client. Using a small value causes RTS
packets to be sent more often, consuming more of the available
bandwidth, therefore reducing the apparent throughput of the
network packets. The default value is 2346, which effectively disables
RTS.
Fragmentation Threshold: This is the maximum length of the frame, in
bytes, beyond which packets must be broken up (fragmented) into two
or more frames. Collisions occur more often for long frames because
while sending them they occupy the channel for a longer time. The
default value is 2346, which effectively disables fragmentation.
Click Apply to apply the changes, or click Reset to undo your
configurations. After this step, you can use your wireless client devices,
such as your smart phone, to search for the WLAN with the SSID and
password that you just specified.
