Select WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK from the Security Mode list. Figure 44 Network > Wireless LAN > AP: WPA(2)-PSK The following table describes the wireless LAN security labels in this screen. Table 30 Network > Wireless LAN > AP: WPA(2)-PSK LABEL DESCRIPTION Security Mode WPA Compatible Choose WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK from the drop-down list box. This check box is available only when you select WPA2-PSK in the Security Mode field. Select the check box to have both WPA-PSK wireless clients be able to communicate with the ZyXEL Device even when the ZyXEL Device is using WPA2-PSK. Pre-Shared Key The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are the same. The only difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK uses a simple common password, instead of user-specific credentials. WPA Group Key Update Timer Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including spaces and symbols). The Group Key Update Timer is the rate at which the AP (if using WPA(2)-PSK key management) sends a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the WPA(2) equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in a WLAN on a periodic basis. 8.2.4 Wireless LAN Advanced Setup Use this screen to configure advanced wireless settings. Click the Advanced Setup button in the AP screen. The screen appears as shown. 128 ADSL Router Series User's Guide

DESCRIPTION
Security Mode
Choose
WPA-PSK
or
WPA2-PSK
from the drop-down list box.
WPA Compatible
This check box is available only when you select
WPA2-PSK
in the
Security Mode
field.
Select the check box to have both WPA-PSK wireless clients be able to communicate
with the ZyXEL Device even when the ZyXEL Device is using WPA2-PSK.
Pre-Shared Key
The encryption mechanisms used for
WPA(2)
and
WPA(2)-PSK
are the same. The
only difference between the two is that
WPA(2)-PSK
uses a simple common
password, instead of user-specific credentials.
Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters (including spaces
and symbols).
WPA Group Key
Update Timer
The
Group Key Update Timer
is the rate at which the AP (if using
WPA(2)-PSK
key
management) sends a new group key out to all clients. The re-keying process is the
WPA(2) equivalent of automatically changing the WEP key for an AP and all stations in
a WLAN on a periodic basis.
