implemented through software. WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase to authenticate and generate
the initial data encryption keys. Then it dynamically varies the encryption key.
WPS-PSK + WPA2-PSK Mixed Mode can provide broader support for all wireless clients.
WPA2-PSK clients get higher speed and security, and WPA-PSK clients get decent speed
and security. The product documentation for your wireless adapter and WPA client software
should have instructions about configuring their WPA settings.
WPA/WPA2 Enterprise is for enterprise-level security and requires an authentication server
to recognize and authorize client access. The authentication server is called Remote
Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS). Every wireless client has a user login on the
RADIUS server, and the router has a client login on the RADIUS server. Data transmissions
are encrypted with an automatically generated key.
