Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface Setting WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK) Like WPA security, WPA2 is available in both WPA2-Personal (PSK) mode and WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS) mode. Typically, WPA2- Personal (PSK) is the mode that will be used in a home environment, while WPA2-Enterprise (RADIUS) is implemented in a business environment where an external radius server distributes the network key to the clients automatically. This guide will focus on WPA2- Personal (PSK) usage. Please refer to the User Manual for more information about wireless security and different types of wireless security. 1. After you’ve set up your Router, go to the “Security” page under “Wireless” and select “WPA/WPA2-Personal (PSK)” from the “Security Mode” drop-down menu. 2. For “Authentication”, select “WPA-PSK”, “WPA2-PSK”, or “WPA- PSK + WPA2-PSK”. This setting will have to be identical on the wireless clients that you set up. “WPA-PSK + WPA2-PSK” mode will allow the Router to support clients running either WPA or WPA2 security. 3. “Encryption Technique”, select “TKIP”, “AES”, or “TKIP+AES”. This setting will have to be identical on the wireless clients that you set up. 4. Enter your pre-shared key (PSK). This can be from eight to 63 characters and can be letters, numbers, or symbols. This same key must be used on all of the wireless clients that you set up. For example, your PSK might be something like: “Smith family network key”. Click “Apply Changes” to finish. You must now set all wireless clients to match these settings. 50
Using the Web-Based Advanced User Interface IMPORTANT: Make sure your wireless computers are updated to work with WPA2 and have the correct settings to get proper connection to the Router. Setting WPA Security Note: To use WPA security, your wireless network cards must be equipped with software that supports WPA. At the time this User Manual was published, a security patch from Microsoft is available for free download. This patch works only with Windows XP. Your Router supports WPA-PSK (no server). WPA-PSK uses what is known as a pre-shared key as the security key. A pre-shared key is basically a password that is between eight and 39 characters long. It can be a combination of letters, numbers, or characters. Each client uses the same key to access the network. Typically this is the mode that will be used in a home environment. 51 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 section
