6.2.3 Wireless Security
Wireless Settings -> Wireless Security
You should set up the wireless security immediately to ensure the security of your data
transmission and to prevent the unauthorized access.
The easiest way to setup encryption
is to use the “Setup Wizard”. It automatically chooses the most secured and easiest
scheme for your wireless security settings
. However, if you wish to choose your own
encryption scheme, the N.Power offers various type of encryption including WEP,
WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2, WPA2-PSK encryptions method. In general, the WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK are the most popular and secured encryption scheme.
Procedure to make encryption
Step1: Select your SSID: If you have enabled the “Multiple SSID” function, there will
be more than one SSID to choose from. Each SSID (Virtual AP) can have its own
security policy.
Step2: Select Security Policy: N.Power offers a full suite of security policy including
WEP(Pre-Shared Key), WPA(certificate), WPA-PSK(AES), WPA2-PSK(AES), and
802.1x Radius Authentication. Recently WiFi regulation prevents the use of TKIP
encryption in 11n mode. Therefore, the TKIP is only available in 11b/g mode.
We
highly recommend using WPA2-PSK AES Encryption as the easiest and very
secured scheme for encryption.
