Security Settings
Security Type:
You can disable or enable wireless security for protecting wireless network. The
default type of wireless security is OPEN and to allow all wireless stations to communicate with the
access points without any data encryption.
To prevent unauthorized wireless stations from accessing data transmitted over the network, the
router offers secure data encryption, known as WEP and WPA.
There are five alternatives to select from: WEP 64-bit, WEP 128-bit, WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK, and
Mixed WPA/WPA2-PSK. If you require high security for transmissions, please select WPA-PSK,
WPA2-PSK or WPA/WPA2-PSK.
WEP 64-bit, WEP 128-bit

used, Open System authentication (OPENWEB) and Share Key authentication (SHAREDWEB). We
suggest you select OPENWEB.
Key 1 to Key 4:

WEP Encryption Key values on all wireless stations must be the same as the router. There are four
keys for your selection. The input format is in HEX style, 5 and 13 HEX codes are required for
64-bitWEP and 128-bitWEP respectively.
