“WPA-shared key” (for an infrastructure network) or “WPA-None”

(enables WPA security for your ad hoc network) requires users to

select the advanced encryption methods, i.e. TKIP or AES and

enter a set of shared key.

TKIP TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) changes the

temporal key every 10,000 packets. This insures much greater

security than the standard WEP security.

AES – AES has been developed to ensure the highest degree of

security and authenticity for digital information and it is the most

advanced solution defined by IEEE 802.11i for the security in the

wireless network.

Key – Enter 8 to 63 digits of ASCII format to be the key for the

authentication within the network.

When you finish configuring the wireless security, click “Save &

Next” to confirm the configuration.
