Parameter Meaning
Wireless authentication Specifies the authentication method used when connecting to a
wireless device.
Wireless encryption You may use any of the following types of encryption:
No encryption
Data is transmitted without encryption. With this setting, anyone
within range can connect to your wireless network and might
be able to access data on the network. Not recommended for
anyone with private data that needs to be kept secure. [No
encryption] can be selected only when [No authentication] is
selected for wireless authentication.
WEP
WEP is a common encryption method supported by most
devices. WEP can only be selected when wireless authentication
is set to [No authentication]. Note that WEP’s encryption is weak,
and networks protected with WEP are not much more secure
than those with no encryption at all. Not recommended for
anyone with private data that needs to be kept secure.
TKIP
TKIP is an encryption method which is more secure than WEP, but
slower. Use an pre-shared key to communicate with a wireless
device.
TKIP can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected
for wireless authentication.
AES
AES is more secure than TKIP, and faster. Use a pre-shared key to
communicate with a wireless device.
AES can be selected only when WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is selected
for wireless authentication.
TKIP/AES mixed mode
TKIP/AES mixed mode allows both TKIP and AES authentication
and communication. This is no more secure than TKIP alone, but
more convenient for some users. TKIP/AES mixed mode can be
selected only when WPA/WPA2 mixed mode - PSK is selected for
wireless authentication.
