3.2.2.3 WPA-PSK / WPA2-PSK Mode 

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is the older standard; select this option if the clients that will be used 

with the router only support the older standard. WPA2 is the newer implementation of the stronger 

IEEE 802.11i security standard.   

 

PSK(Pre-Shared Key) is the key which is entered as a pass-phrase of up to 63 alphanumeric 

characters in ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange) format or 64 digits in 

HEX format at both ends of the wireless connection. When inputting ASCII strings, it cannot be 

shorter than eight characters, although for proper security it needs to be of ample length and should 

not be a commonly known phrase. This phrase is used to generate session keys that are unique for 

each wireless client.   

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WPA Algorithms: 

Mark the option to enable modes of TKIP or AES. 

 

Pass Phrase:

 This mode requires only an access point and client station that supports 

WPA-PSK. The WPA-PSK settings include Key Format, Length and Value. They must be as 

same as each wireless client in your wireless network. When Key format is Passphrase, the 

key value should have 8-63 ASCII characters or 64 digits in HEX format.
