Configure WPA with RADIUS, WPA2 with RADIUS, and WPA & WPA2 with
RADIUS
WPA, WPA2, and WPA & WPA2 security requires RADIUS-based 802.1x authentication, so
you also need to define RADIUS server settings. For information about RADIUS servers, see
Configure RADIUS Server Settings
on page
55.
The selections that are available from the Data Encryption drop-down menu depend on the
type of WPA authentication that you select from the Network Authentication drop-down menu
and are shown in the table that follows the figures.

TKIP
Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) is the standard encryption method used with WPA. You
can also use TKIP with WPA2.
Note:
TKIP provides only legacy (slower) rates of operation. If you want to use the 11n rates and
speed, NETGEAR recommends WPA2 authentication with AES encryption.
