on 802.11i and uses Advanced Encryption Standard instead
of TKIP. It was designed to improve the security features of

your wireless connection. You needn’t make any configuration
here.

The encryption type here is set to be AES.

Enter the Key in the field to make your AP security enabled. It
is recommended that you specify another key instead of the
