Selecting a wireless security type:
We highly recommend that you do not change the network authentication type. Use the default “WPA2
-
PSK”
authentication because it is the most secure one. Changing it to another type such as WEP will compromise the
security of the NF18ACV.
Selecting a wireless security key:
We do not recommend changing the wireless security key from the default setting. It is randomly generated,
reasonably secure and unique to each unit. Your client devices will still have same password even if the NF18ACV is
reset to factory default settings. If you want to change it to a more secure password, add numbers and special
characters along with upper-case and lower-case characters. The longer the password, the more secure it is.
