For home users that will not incorporate a RADIUS server in their network, the
security for the WUA-2340, used in conjunction with other WPA-compatible
802.11 products, will still be much stronger than ever before. Utilizing the
Pre-Shared Key mode
of WPA, the WUA-2340 will obtain a new security key
every time it connects to the 802.11 network. You only need to input your
encryption information once in the configuration menu. No longer will you have
to manually input a new WEP key frequently to ensure security. With the
WUA-2340 , you will automatically receive a new key every time you connect,
vastly increasing the safety of your communication.
