2-7-3 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, causing a serious security
problem.
Click Wireless on the left side of the Web management interface,
then click “Security Settings.”
Select an encryption method from the “Encryption” drop-down
menu. There are four options:
2-7-3-1 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 (such as MAC
address access control or disabling ESSID broadcast).
Only use this option when you really want to allow everyone
to use your wireless router and you don’t care if someone
reads the data you transfer over the network without your
consent.
2-7-3-2 WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy)
When you select this mode, the wireless router will use WEP
encryption and the following setup menu will be shown on your
Web browser:
