WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK
WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA2-PSK (AES) are newer types of security. These types of
security give a more secure network compared to WEP. Enter the key in the WPA
Pre-Shared Key field. The key needs to be more than 8 characters and less than 63
characters and it can be any combination of letters and numbers.

Figure 21: Wi-Fi Security Settings - WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

Note: The configuration for WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK is also identical. Your AirCard Hub uses
WPA2-PSK by default.
802.1x
To use 802.1x security, you need to have a RADIUS server on your network that acts
as the authentication server. Please type in the details for your RADIUS server in the
fields required.

Most wireless adapters in computers and laptops support at least WEP and WPA.
Note: After configuring wireless security, you also need to configure your wireless adapter to
use the same security settings before you can connect wirelessly. Not all wireless adapters
support WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK/WPA/WPA2 security; please refer to your wireless adapter user
guide for more details. It is strongly recommended to set up a simple wireless security such as
WPA-PSK (when the wireless client supports WPA-PSK) in order to secure your network.
