Configure WPA-Personal (PSK)
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to
the added overhead.
1. Log into the web-based configuration by opening a
web browser and entering the IP address of the router
(192.168.0.1). Click on Setup and then click Wireless
Settings on the left side.
2. Next to Security Mode, select WPA-Personal.
3. Next to WPA Mode, select WPA, WPA2, or WPA2 Only.
Use WPA2 if you have wireless clients using both WPA and
WPA2.
4. Next to Cipher Mode, select TKIP, AES, or Auto.
5. Next to Group Key Update Interval, enter the amount of time
before the group key used for broadcast and multicast data
is changed (3600 is default).
6. Next to Pre-Shared Key, enter a key (passphrase). The key is entered as a pass-phrase in ASCII format at both
ends of the wireless connection. The pass-phrase must be between 8-63 characters.
7. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are configuring the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose
connectivity until you enable WPA-PSK on your adapter and enter the same passphrase as you did on the router.
