Sierra Wireless 4G LTE Tri-Fi Hotspot User Manual page 16

Note: All the devices used with the Sierra Wireless 4G LTE Tri-Fi Hotspot must support the
selected security type.
Note: WPS is available only if you select either a WPA2 Personal option (including
WPA/WPA2 Personal) or (not recommended) no security. (See
WPS.)
The options displayed depend on the Basic Rate setting (in Advanced Settings > Wi-Fi >
Security; see Wi-Fi Tab: Security
If Basic Rate is "802.11b/g compatibility" or "802.11g only," these options are shown:
● WPA-Personal — This is a strong security standard, supported by most Wi-Fi devices.
● WPA2-Personal AES — This is a stronger, newer security standard that is limited to
newer Wi-Fi devices.
● WEP-64 Bit — This option provides security, but it's relatively weak. This option works
with older and newer Wi-Fi devices, and is recommended only if any of your devices
don't support WPA or WPA2.
● None — No security is used (no password is required to access the Wi-Fi network); this
setting is not recommended. Anyone may access your device and use your Internet
connection. (You are responsible for payment for data usage fees.)
If Basic Rate is "802.11b/g/n compatibility," these options are shown:
● WPA2 Personal - AES — This is a stronger, newer security standard that is limited to
newer Wi-Fi devices.
● WPA/WPA2 Personal (recommended setting if any of your devices are more than two
years old) — Wi-Fi devices that use either WPA or WPA2 can connect to the Sierra
Wireless 4G LTE Tri-Fi Hotspot. Most Wi-Fi devices support this type of security.
● None — No security is used (no password is required to access the Wi-Fi network); this
setting is not recommended. Anyone may access your device and use your Internet
connection. (You are responsible for payment for data usage fees.)
