When data is encrypted, information transmitted wirelessly cannot be read by anyone who does not know the encryption key. Note: It is very important to set up wireless security. Without security enabled, hackers or intruders may gain access to your local network and cause damage to your computers and servers. Note: There are several things you can do to improve wireless security. 1. Use complicated, hard-to-guess phrases as your security password. Use a random combination of letters, numbers and symbols. 2. Use WPA whenever possible. It's more secure than WEP. 3. Change your security password regularly. Open the drop down menu labeled encryption and select the type of encryption you would like to use. 51
