Long Range Wireless Access Point / Client Bridge
Encryption: Select TKIP or AES from the drop‐down list if your wireless network
uses this encryption. WPA (Wi‐Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve
upon the security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is
designed to work with existing Wi‐Fi products that have been enabled with WEP.
WPA provides improved data encryption through the Temporal Integrity
Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by
adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven't been
tampered with.
Passphrase: Specify a passphrase that is shared amongst the Access Points and
clients.
