Wireless security is not used.
In WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) mode you can select
64-bit or 128-bit data encryption. This mode has been
superseded by WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK, which should be
selected if possible. See
WPA Pre-Shared-Key (Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key)
uses a pre-shared key to perform the authentication and
generate the initial data encryption keys. Then, it dynamically
varies the encryption key.
WPA-PSK uses TKIP (Temporal Key Integrity Protocol) data
encryption, implements most of the IEEE 802.11i standard, and
is designed to work with all wireless network interface cards, but
not all wireless access points. See
(TKIP) + WPA2-PSK (AES)
Shared Key) uses a pre-shared key to perform the
authentication and generate the initial data encryption keys.
Then, it dynamically varies the encryption key. WPA2-PSK
provides the best throughput with 802.11N because the
encryption is supported in the hardware. WPA2-PSK uses AES
(Advanced Encryption Standard) data encryption, implements
the full IEEE 802.11i standard, but does not work with some
older network cards. See
WPA2-PSK (AES) Security."
This setting uses both WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK encryption. A
high performance client such as the NETGEAR WN511B should
connect using WPA2-PSK in order to achieve maximum
performance. Wireless clients that connect to this router using
WPA-PSK will run at reduced performance levels. See
