 Click on the Security link under the Wireless drop-down menu.

 WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) is designed to improve upon the security features of WEP

(Wired Equivalent Privacy). The technology is designed to work with existing Wi-Fi products

that have been enabled with WEP. WPA provides improved data encryption through the

Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a hashing algorithm and

by adding an integrity checking feature which makes sure that keys haven’t been tampered

with.

 ESSID Selection: As this device supports multiple SSIDs, it is possible to configure a

different security mode for each SSID (profile). Select an SSID from the drop-down list.

 Broadcast SSID: Select Enable or Disable from the drop-down list. This is the SSID

broadcast feature.

When this option is set to Enable, your wireless network name is broadcast to

anyone within the range of your signal

. If you're not using encryption then they could connect to

your network. When this is disabled, you must enter the Wireless Network Name (SSID) on

the client manually to connect to the network.

 WMM: Choose to Enable or Disable WMM. This is the Quality of Service (QoS) feature for

prioritizing voice and video applications. This option can be further configured in WMM

under the Wireless drop-down menu.
