Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster

The Wireless Tab - Wireless Security

The Wireless Security settings configure the security of your wireless network. There are four wireless security
mode options supported by the Router: WPA Pre-Shared Key, WPA RADIUS, RADIUS, and WEP. (WPA stands for Wi-
Fi Protected Access, which is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WEP stands for Wired Equivalent
Privacy, while RADIUS stands for Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service.) These four are briefly discussed
here. For detailed instructions on configuring wireless security for the Router, turn to "Appendix B: Wireless
Security."
WPA Pre-Shared Key. WPA gives you two encryption methods, TKIP and AES, with dynamic encryption keys.
Select the type of algorithm, TKIP or AES. Enter a WPA Shared Key of 8-63 characters. Then enter a Group Key
Renewal period, which instructs the Router how often it should change the encryption keys.
WPA RADIUS. This option features WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. (This should only be used
when a RADIUS server is connected to the Router.) First, select the type of WPA algorithm you want to use, TKIP
or AES. Enter the RADIUS server's IP Address and port number, along with a key shared between the Router and
the server. Last, enter a Key Renewal Timeout, which instructs the Router how often it should change the
encryption keys.
