7. Authentication mode: You may select from nine kinds of
authentication to secure your wireless network: Open, Shared, Auto,
WPA-PSK, WPA, WPA2-PSK, WPA2, WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK,
WPA/WPA2.
 Open
Open system authentication simply consists of two communications.
The first is an authentication request by the client that contains the
station ID (typically the MAC address). This is followed by an
authentication response from the AP/router containing a success or
failure message. An example of when a failure may occur is if the
client's MAC address is explicitly excluded in the AP/router
configuration.
 Shared
Shared key authentication relies on the fact that both stations taking
part in the authentication process have the same "shared" key or
passphrase. The shared key is manually set on both the client station
and the AP/router. Three types of shared key authentication are
available today for home or small office WLAN environments.
 Auto
The AP will Sele
ct the Open or Shared by the client’s request
automatically.
