Field
Description
Encryption
Configure the wireless encryption mode. You can choose
None, WEP, WPA (TKIP), WPA (AES), WPA2 (AES), WPA2
(TKIP) or WPA2 Mixed.
Wired equivalent privacy (WEP) encrypts data frames
before transmitting over the wireless network.
Wi-Fi protected access (WPA) is a subset of the
IEEE802.11i security specification draft.
WPA2 Mixed is the collection of WPA and WPA2
encryption modes. The wireless client establishes the
connection between the router through WPA or WPA2.
Key differences between WPA and WEP are user
authentication and improved data encryption.
Set WEP Key
It is available when you set the encryption mode to WEP.
Click it, the Wireless WEP Key Setup page appears.
WPA Authentication
Mode
Select
Personal
(Pre-Shared
Key),
enter
the
pre-shared key in the Pre-Shared Key field.
Select Enterprise (RADIUS), enter the port, IP address,
and password of the Radius server.
You need to enter the username and password provided by
the Radius server when the wireless client connects the
router.
If the encryption is set to WEP, the router uses 802.1x
authentication, which is Radius authentication.
