WPA/WPA2-PSK is a Wi-Fi Protected Access Pre-Shared Key, which lets the Brother wireless machine associate with access points using
TKIP or AES encryption (WPA-Personal). WPA/WPA2-PSK (TKIP or AES) uses a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) that is 8 or more characters in
length, up to a maximum of 63 characters.
2
The WEP key is for 64-bit encrypted networks or 128-bit encrypted networks and can contain both numbers and letters. If you do not know
this information you should see the documentation provided with your access point or wireless router. This key is a 64-bit or 128-bit value
that must be entered in an ASCII or HEXADECIMAL format.
