Because wireless networks are not as secure as wired networks, it’s vital that security
settings are clearly understood and applied.
The list below shows the possible wireless security levels on your adapter starting with the
most secure. EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) is used for authentication and utilizes
dynamic WEP key exchange. EAP requires interaction with a RADIUS (Remote
Authentication Dial-In User Service) server either on the WAN or the LAN to provide
authentication service for wireless stations.
1. Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA)
2. IEEE802.1X EAP with RADIUS Server authentication
3. WEP Encryption
4. Unique ESSID
