networks the equivalent level of privacy protection as a comparable wired
network.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) – PSK
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed to improve
upon the security features of WEP. To use WPA security, the drivers and
software of your wireless equipment must be upgraded to support WPA. These
updates will be found on the wireless vendor’s web site. There are two types of
WPA security, WPA-PSK (no server) and WPA (with radius server).
WPA-PSK (no server) uses a pre-shared key as the network key. A network key
is a password that is between eight and 63 characters long. It can be a
