the type of algorithm,

Renewal period, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.
WPA2 Enterprise
. This option features WPA2 used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be
used when a RADIUS server is connected to the Router.) First, select the type of WPA algorithm you want to use,
AES
, or
TKIP +
