1. Disable:

When you select this mode, wireless data encryption is disabled, and every wireless device in
proximity will be able to connect your wireless router if no other security measure is enabled (like MAC
address access control in Chapter 5.2.4.4, or ESSID broadcast disabled).

Only use this option when you really want to allow everyone to use your wireless router, and
you don’t care if anyone reads the data you transfer over network without your consent.
