ƒ Select WPA or WPA2-Mixed from the drop-down list if your wireless network uses
WPA encryption. WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the
security features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to
work with existing Wi-Fi products that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides
improved data encryption through the Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which
scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity checking
feature which makes sure that keys haven’t been tampered with.
