Configuration Utility

WPA and WPA-PSK configuration

Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) is a sub-set of the
forthcoming IEEE 802.11i security standard. WPA
addresses those known weakness of WEP and
provides stronger security to wireless network.

IOGEAR Wireless-G Broadband Router supports
three authentication modes:

• 802.11x (need RADIUS server to authenticate
the clients, using WEP keying)

• WPA (same 802.1x, but with TKIP keying
support); WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key, no
RADIUS server needed)
