Wireless Security Settings
If you accepted the default to Enable the Wireless Module (on the Wireless Settings page at
Step 3), the following page opens when you click Next.
From the drop-down menu, you can choose either none, WEP, or WPA2/WPA. By
default, the Router does not have security enabled. However, we strongly recommend that
you configure wireless security for your network. You need to use the same security mode
you select for your wireless Router for each wireless device using the Router. If a Pass
Phrase or WEP key is used, it needs to be the same for all devices including the Router.
Select from the following options:
WPA2/WPA (Recommended): Most users should select the
o
WPA2/WPA option. When you select this option, the Security Key field
appears.
