Wireless-G Broadband Router with SpeedBooster
The Wireless Tab - Basic Wireless Settings
The Wireless Security settings configure the security of your wireless network. You can choose Disabled from
the Security Mode drop-down menu if you do not want to use wireless security.
The wireless security mode options supported by the Router are WPA Personal, WPA Enterprise, WPA2 Personal,
WPA2 Enterprise, RADIUS, and WEP. (WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy, WPA stands for Wi-Fi Protected
Access, which is a security standard stronger than WEP encryption. WPA2 is stronger than WPA. WPA Enterprise
is WPA used in coordination with a RADIUS server. RADIUS stands for Remote Authentication Dial-In User
Service.) These are briefly discussed here. For detailed instructions on configuring wireless security for the
Router, turn to "Appendix B: Wireless Security."
WPA Personal. 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 Enterprise. 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.

IMPORTANT: If you are using WPA, always
remember that each device in your wireless
network MUST use the same WPA method
and shared key, or else the network will not
function properly.
