2-8-3 Wireless Security
It’s very important to set wireless security settings properly
.
If you don’t, hackers and
malicious users can reach your network and valuable data without your consent and
this will cause serious security problem.
To set wireless security settings, Please click ‘Security Settings’ menu on the left of
web management interface, under the ‘Wireless’ tab and then follow the instructions
mentioned below to set wireless security settings:
Please select an encryption method from ‘Encryption’ dropdown menu. In this there
are four options:
Disable
- Please go to
WEP
- Please go to
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
-
WPA RADIUS
- Please go to
2-8-3-1 Disable wireless security
When you select this mode, data encryption is disabled, and every wireless device in
proximity will be able to connect to your wireless router if no other security measure
is enabled (like MAC address access control - see
or disable ESSID
broadcast).
Only use this option when you really want to allow everyone to use your wireless
router, and you don’t care if there’s someone reading the data you transfer over
network without your consent.
