encryption. TKIP utilized a stronger encryption method and
incorporates Message Integrity Code (MIC) to provide protection against
hackers.
WPA2 (AES):
WPA2, also known as 802.11i, uses Advanced Encryption
Standard (AES) for data encryption. AES utilized a symmetric 128-bit
block data encryption.
WAP2 Mixed
: The AP supports WPA (TKIP) and WPA2 (AES) for data
encryption. The actual selection of the encryption methods will depend
on the clients.

WPA-RADIUS:
WPA RADIUS uses an external RADIUS server to perform
user authentication. To use WPA RADIUS, enter the IP address of the
RADIUS server, the RADIUS port (default is 1812) and the shared secret
from the RADIUS server. Please refer to “Authentication RADIUS Server”
setting below for RADIUS setting. The WPA algorithm is selected
between TKIP and AES, please refer to “WPA cipher Suite” below.
Pre-Shared Key:
Pre-Shared Key authentication is based on a shared
secret that is known only by the parties involved. To use WPA
Pre-Shared Key, select key format and enter a password in the
“Pre

C2C
Although home Wi-Fi networks have become more and more popular, users still have
trouble with the initial set up of network. This obstacle forces users to use the open security
and increases the risk of eavesdropping. Therefore, The Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) is
designed to ease set up of security-enabled Wi-Fi networks and subsequently network
management (Wi-Fi Protected Setup Specification 1.0h.pdf, p. 8).
The largest difference between WPS-enabled devices and legacy devices is that users do not
need the knowledge about SSID, channel and security settings, but they could still surf in a
security-enabled Wi-Fi network.
This device supports Push Button method and PIN method for WPS. The following
sub-paragraphs will describe the function of each item. The webpage is as below.
