It is recommended strongly that you choose one of
following options to enable security.
WPA-PSK It is a simplified WPA mode with no need for specific
authentication server. In this so-called WPA Pre-Shared
Key, all you have to do is just pre-enter a key in each
WLAN node and this is the common way to be adopted in
large and middle enterprise as well as residential network.
WPA2-PSK As a new version of WPA, only all the clients support
WPA2, which is available. If it is selected, the data
encryption can only be AES and the passphrase is
required.
Mixed
WPA/WPA2-PSK
It provides options of WPA (TKIP) or WPA2 (AES)
encryption for the client. If it is selected, the data
encryption can only be TKIP + AES and the passphrase is
required.
