Authentication
The authentication methods supported by RT-N11 include: Open, Shared key,

WPA-Personal, WPA2-Personal, WPA-Auto-Personal (TKIP+AES), WPA-

Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Auto-Enterprise (TKIP+AES), and Radius with

802.1x.

Open: This option disables authentication protection for wireless network.

Shared Key: This mode uses the WEP keys currently in use for authentication.
WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPA-Auto-Enterprise, WPA-Personal,

WPA2-Personal, WPA-Auto-Personal: WPA stands for WiFi-Protected

Access. WPA provides two security modes: WPA for enterprise network, and

WPA-PSK for home and SOHO users. For enterprise network, WPA uses the

already existing RADIUS server for authentication; for home and SOHO user,

it provides Pre-Shared Key (PSK) for user identification. The Pre-Shared Key

consists of 8 to 64 characters.
Radius with 802.1x: Similar with WPA, this solution also uses RADIUS server

for authentication. The difference lays on the encryption methods: WPA adopts

TKIP or AES encryption methods, while Radius with 802.1X does not provide

encryption.

When authentication and encryption are set, click

Finish to save the settings and

restart the wireless router.
