the network. The TKIP encryption algorithm is stricter than the one
used by WEP but is based on the same standard.
WPA: The 802.1x authentication protocol, allows users to authenticate
wireless network access through a RADIUS Server and is a required by
WPA standard. If no RADIUS Server exists in your network environment,
you still can use WPA through the use of WPA Pre-shared Key.

The AirCruiser G supports two WEP standards:
64-bit,152-bit
. Select
either
64-bits
or
152-bits
from the drop-down list activate WEP
encryption. The
64-bits
encryption uses 40 bits as a secret key,
(user-defined) and the remaining 24 bits are reserved. The
128-bits
encryption uses 104 bits as a secret key, (user-defined) and the
remaining 24 bits are reserved.
WPA Re-key
Enabling the requirement for WPA rekeying of a Passphrase for
increased security. Default is
disable
.
WEP Re-key Timer
Specify time (in minutes) for expiration of the current WPA Key.
WPA PSK Passphrase
The Passphrase must be between 8 and 64 characters.
WPA PSK Re-key
A user without a RADIUS server, may specify generating a new WPA
PSK key more frequently than each time he connects to the network.
WPA PSK Re-key Timer
Specify time (in minutes) for expiration of the current WPA PSK key
