.
WEP
WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy), based on the IEEE 802.11 standard, is less safe than WPA-
Enterprise or WPA-PSK.
NOTE:
WEP
is not supported in 802.11n mode. If WEP is applied in 802.11n mode, the clients may not be
able to access the wireless network. If WEP is applied in 11b/g/n mode (in the 2.4GHz frequency
band), the device may work at a low transmission rate.
