Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a newer and more secure encryption protocol which makes significant improvements over WEP. There are two
versions of WPA; the original WPA, and the newer WPA2.
Encryption Type:
Select WPA.Personal from the drop-down menu.
WPA Mode:
Select the desired authentication method from the drop-
down menu:
Auto.(WPA.or.WPA2) - The router will automatically
determine the version of WPA to be used based on the client
that is connecting to it.
WPA - Clients will only be able to associate with the router
using the WPA standard.
WPA2 - Clients will only be able to associate with the router
using the WPA2 standard. Clients which do not support WPA2
will not be able to associate with the router.
Cipher Type:
Select the desired cipher type from the drop-down menu:
TKIP - This cipher is used by the WPA standard.
AES - A newer cipher used by the WPA2 standard. Use of this
cipher type is required in order to achieve 802.11 speeds.
Pre-Shared Key
The pre-shared key is the password which clients will require
in order to connect to your network. Enter a password of
between 8 and 63 characters in length.
