Setting Security
You can use WEP (64- or 128-bit), WPA, WPA2, or WPA/WPA2 Mixed Mode security .
Some WiFi clients become confused if the security is changed and the network
name is not. If you change security settings and do not get asked for the new
network key when you try to reconnect, delete the existing “old” network name
from your “Preferred Networks” list. Then you can reconnect.
Tip!

Record your network key.
