To ensure the security and privacy of your wireless communication, we provide several
prevailing standards on market.
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) is a legacy method to encrypt each frame transmitted via
radio using either a 64-bit or 128-bit key. Usually access point will preset a set of four keys
and it will communicate with each station using only one out of the four keys.
WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access), the most dominating security mechanism in industry, is
separated into two categories: WPA-personal or called WPA Pre-Share Key (WPA/PSK), and
WPA-Enterprise or called WPA/802.1x.
In WPA-Personal, a pre-defined key is used for encryption during data transmission. WPA
applies Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) for data encryption while WPA2 applies AES.
The WPA-Enterprise combines not only encryption but also authentication.
Since WEP has been proved vulnerable, you may consider using WPA for the most secure
connection. You should select the appropriate security mechanism according to your needs.
No matter which security suite you select, they all will enhance the over-the-air data
protection and /or privacy on your wireless network. The Vigor wireless router is very flexible
and can support multiple secure connections with both WEP and WPA at the same time.
Info
The password (PSK) of default security mode is provided and stated on the
label pasted on the bottom of the router. For the wireless client who wants
to access into Internet through such router, please input the default PSK
value for connection.

It enables you to isolate your wireless LAN from wired LAN for either quarantine or limit
access reasons. To isolate means neither of the parties can access each other. To elaborate
an example for business use, you may set up a wireless LAN for visitors only so they can
connect to Internet without hassle of the confidential information leakage. For a more
flexible deployment, you may add filters of MAC addresses to isolate users’ access from wired
LAN.
