Table 4-1. Basic Wireless Security Options
Field Description
Automatic
No wireless security.
WEP WEP offers the following options:
• Open System
With Open Network Authentication and 64- or 128-bit WEP Data Encryption, the WPN824
does perform 64- or 128-bit data encryption but does not perform any authentication.
• Shared Key
Shared Key authentication encrypts the SSID and data.
Choose the Encryption Strength (64- or 128-bit data encryption). Manually enter the key
values or enter a word or group of printable characters in the Passphrase box. Manually
entered keys
are case sensitive but passphrase characters are not case sensitive.
Note : Not all wireless adapter configuration utilities support passphrase key generation.
• Auto
The router automatically detects whether Open System or Shared Key are being used.
WPA-PSK
WPA2-PSK
WPA-Pre-shared Key does perform authentication. WPA-PSK uses TKIP (Temporal Key
Integrity Protocol) data encryption and WPA2-PSK uses AES (Advanced Encryption Standard)
data encryption. Both dynamically change the encryption keys, making them nearly impossible
to circumvent.
Enter a word or group of printable characters in the Passphrase box. These characters
are
case sensitive.
Note : Not all wireless adapter configuration utilities support WPA. Furthermore, client software
is required on the client. Windows XP Service Pack 2 and Windows XP Service Pack 1 with
the WPA patch do include the client software that supports WPA. Nevertheless, the wireless
adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA.
