III-5-4. WPA Pre-Shared Key
WPA pre-shared key is the recommended and most secure encryption type.
WPA Unicast
Cipher Suite
Available options are: WPA (TKIP), WPA2
(AES), and WPA2 Mixed. AES is safer than
TKIP, but not all wireless client support it.

supports the cipher you selected.
We recommend WPA2(AES). If your
wireless device does not support AES, then
select WPA2 Mixed.
