WPA-Personal

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), a Wi-Fi standard, is a more recent wireless encryption 
scheme, designed to improve the security features of WEP. It applies more powerful 
encryption   types   (such   as   TKIP   [Temporal   Key   Integrity   Protocol]   or  AES   [Advanced 
Encryption Standard]) and can change the keys dynamically on every authorized wireless 
device.

WPA Algorithms

:   Provides   TKIP   [Temporal   Key   Integrity   Protocol]   or  AES   [Advanced 

Encryption Standard]. The default is TKIP mode.

Pass Phrase

: Enter the encrypted characters with 8-63 ASCII characters.

Key Renewal Interval

: Set the key’s renewal period.

WPA2- Personal

WPA2 (Wi-Fi Protected Access version 2) provides higher security than WEP (Wireless 
Equivalent Privacy) and WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access).

WPA Algorithms
