Set up Data Encryption and Authentication
In a home WiFi network you can use a variety of simple security procedures to protect your
wireless connection. These include:
Enable Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA*).
Change your password.
Change the network name (SSID).
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA) encryption provides protection for your data on the network.
WPA uses an encryption key called a Pre-Shared Key (PSK) to encrypt data before
transmission. Enter the same password in all of the computers and access point in your
home or small business network. Only devices that use the same encryption key can access
the network or decrypt the encrypted data transmitted by other computers. The password
automatically initiates the Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP) or AES-CCMP protocol for
the data encryption process.
