6.7.2 WPA-PSK
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is an advanced security standard. You can use a pre-shared key to
authenticate wireless stations and encrypt data during communication. It uses TKIP or CCMP (AES) to
change the encryption key frequently. So the encryption key is not easy to be broken by hackers. This
can improve security very much.
You can select the 64 or 128-bit key to encrypt transmitted data. Larger
WEP key length will provide higher level of security, but the throughput
will be lower.
You may select to select ASCII Characters (alphanumeric format) or
Hexadecimal Digits (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9" range) to be the WEP
Key.
Select one of the four keys to encrypt your data. Only the key you select
it in the "Default key" will take effect.
The WEP keys are used to encrypt data transmitted in the wireless
network. Fill the text box by following the rules below.
64-bit WEP: input 10-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9"
range) or 5-digit ASCII character as the encryption keys.
128-bit WEP: input 26-digit Hex values (in the "A-F", "a-f" and "0-9"
range) or 10-digit ASCII characters as the encryption keys.
