To protect your privacy you can configure wireless security features. This device supports three wireless security modes including: WEP, WPA-Personal, and WPA-Enterprise. WEP is the original wireless encryption standard. WPA provides a higher level of security. WPA-Personal does not require an authentication server. The WPA-Enterprise option requires an external RADIUS server.

WEP is the wireless encryption standard. To use it you must enter the same key(s) into the Access Point and the wireless stations. For 64 bit keys you must enter 10 hex digits into each key box. For 128 bit keys you must enter 26 hex digits into each key box. A hex digit is either a number from 0 to 9 or a letter from A to F. For the most secure use of WEP set the authentication type to "Shared Key" when WEP is enabled.

You may also enter any text string into a WEP key box, in which case it will be converted into a hexadecimal key using the ASCII values of the characters. 5 text characters can be entered for 64 bit keys, and 13 characters for 128 bit keys.

WPA requires stations to use high grade encryption and authentication. For legacy compatibility, use WPA or WPA2 mode. This mode uses WPA for legacy clients while maintaining higher security with stations that are WPA2 capable. The strongest cipher that the client supports will be used. For best security, use WPA2 Only mode. In this mode, legacy stations are not allowed access with WPA security. The AES cipher will be used across the wireless network to ensure best security.

When WPA enterprise is enabled, the Access Point uses EAP (802.1x) to authenticate clients via a remote RADIUS server.
