Configure SSID Disabled - no data encryption is used.

WEP - data is encrypted using the WEP standard.
WPA-PSK - data is encrypted using the WPA-PSK stan-

dard. This is a later standard than WEP, and provides much
better security than WEP. If all your Wireless stations sup-
port WPA-PSK, you should use WPA-PSK rather than WEP.

WPA2-PSK - This is a further development of WPA-PSK,

and offers even greater security, using the AES (Advanced
Encryption Standard) method of encryption.

WPA-802.1x - This version of WPA requires a Radius

Server on your LAN to provide the client authentication ac-
cording to the 802.1x standard. Data transmissions are
encrypted using the WPA standard.
