Wireless Configuration 4-3
v1.0, April 2006
• WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK. Wi-Fi Protected Access, Pre-Shared Key (WPA-PSK and
WPA2-PSK) data encryption provide strong data security. WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK block
eavesdropping. Because these are new standards, wireless device driver and software
availability may be limited.
• Turn Off the Wireless LAN. If you disable the wireless LAN, wireless devices cannot
communicate with the router at all. You might choose to turn off the wireless LAN when you
are away and other users of your network all use wired connections.
Understanding Wireless Settings
To configure the Wireless settings of your firewall, click the Wireless link in the main menu of the
browser interface. The Wireless Settings menu appears, as shown below.
