DGFV338 ProSafe Wireless ADSL Modem VPN Firewall Router Reference Manual Figure 3-6 Configuring WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK Not all wireless adapters support WPA and WPA2. Client software is required on the client: • Windows XP and Windows 2000 with Service Pack 3 or above do include the client software that supports WPA. The wireless adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA. • Service Pack 3 does not include the client software that supports WPA2. Make sure your client card supports WPA2. The wireless adapter hardware and driver must also support WPA2. Consult the product documentation for your wireless adapter; WPA client software for instructions on configuring WPA settings; and WPA2 client software for instructions on configuring WPA2 settings. To configure WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK: 1. From the Wireless Security Type section, select WPA and WPA2. By default, WPA with PSK is selected and Encryption will be set to TKIP+AES. 2. Enter the Passphrase (Network Key).The 256-bit key used for encryption is generated from the Passphrase. 3. Enter the Key Lifetime (in minutes). This determines how often the encryption key is changed. (Shorter periods give better security, but adversely affect performance.) 3-14 v1.0, April 2007 Wireless Configuration
