WEP Key Length: Select a 64-bit or 128-bit WEP key length from the drop-

WEP Key 1-4: You may enter four different WEP keys.
Default WEP Key: You may use up to four different keys for four different
networks. Select the current key that will be used.
Authentication: Select Open, or Shared Key. Authentication method from
the drop-down list. An open system allows any client to authenticate as long
as it conforms to any MAC address filter policies that may have been set. All
authentication packets are transmitted without encryption. Shared Key sends
an unencrypted
communicate with the AP. The device requesting authentication encrypts the
challenge text and sends it back to the access point. If the challenge text is
encrypted correctly, the access point allows the requesting device to
authenticate. It is recommended to select Auto if you are not sure which
authentication type is used.

WPA Personal (Wi-Fi Protected Access)
Select the WPA-Personal radio button if your wireless network uses WPA
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.
