WPA/WPA2-PSK encryption: WPA/WPA2-PSK (Preshared Key) uses TKIP or AES based on your choice. You create a password (or Passphrase as its often called) and the system will use the Passphrase to create a cipher code in which it will encrypt the data. To use WPA/WPA2-PSK: 1. Create a Passphrase, and key it in. Use 8~63 ASCII digits. 2. Remember this Passphrase. If you forget the Passphrase, you will have to do a hard reset of the Access Point in order to restore default settings and connect again. 3.
