Section 4 - Security
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 (19.168.0.1). Click
on Setup and then click
Wireless Settings
on the left side.
. Next to Security Mode, select WPA-Personal.
3. Next to WPA Mode, select Auto, WPA2 Only, or WPA Only. Use
Auto if you have wireless clients using both WPA and WPA.
4. Next to Cypher Type, select TKIP and AES, TKIP, or AES.
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.
