Key Length: There are two basic levels of WEP encryption, 64 bits and
128 bits. The more bits passwords have, the better security a wireless
network has, but the wireless speed may be slower.
-
Key Mode: Here the type of password may be selected. You can select
ASCII characters (alphanumeric) or Hexadecimal ('A-F', 'a-f' and '0-9'). For
64-bit WEP, input 10 Hex values (in the 'A-F', 'a-f' and '0-9' range) or 5 ASCII
characters. For 128-bit WEP, input 26 Hex values (in the 'A-F', 'a-f' and '0-9'
range) or 13 ASCII characters.
Note: when the WPS is enabled, please do not use WEP.
WPA-PSK, WPA2-PSK and WPA/WPA2-PSK
-
Encryption Type: You can
select the algorithm(s) you
want to use - TKIP, AES or
TKIP&AES. TKIP means
"Temporal Key Integrity
Protocol" and incorporates
Message Integrity Code
(MIC) to provide protection
against hackers.
AES, means "Advanced Encryption System" and utilizes symmetric 128-Bit
block data.
-
Key Mode: You can select ASCII (alphanumeric format) or Hexadecimal
('A-F', 'a-f' and '0-9'). You will need to input 64 values for Hex, or 8-63
ASCII characters.
-
Key Renewal: You can configure the renewal time between 60 to 86400
seconds.
