mechanism. Use the strongest security mechanism that all the
wireless devices in your network support. For example, use
WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK if all your wireless devices support
it, or use WPA or WPA2 if your wireless devices support it and
you have a RADIUS server. If your wireless devices support
nothing stronger than WEP, use the highest encryption level
available.

Select this option if the AP uses WPA-PSK wireless security.
WPA2 PSK/AES
Select this option if the AP uses WPA2-PSK wireless security.
