Configuring via Web Management Interface
Security:
Select an option from the Security drop-down list. The extender provides
four options, None, WPA/WPA2 Personal (Recommended), WPA/WPA2 Enterprise, WEP.
WPA2 uses the newest standard and the security level is the highest. We recommend
you don’t change the default settings unless necessary.

Select the desired mode.

clients.
Note:
When 802.11n only mode is selected, only 802.11n wireless clients can connect to the extender. It is strongly
recommended that you select 802.11b/g/n mixed, and all of 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n wireless clients can
