Wireless Encryption
This page is available from
Home
by selecting
Wireless Encryption
.
Here, you can manually
select the type of wireless encryption you’d
like to use.
Your AirStation supports three
different encryption schemes; choose the best
one that all your clients support.
Virtually all wireless clients support
WEP
.
It’s
a lot better than nothing.
TKIP
is much more secure than WEP, but
slower.
AES
is even more secure than TKIP, and the
fastest of all.
Highly recommended if all of
your wireless clients support it.
