STEP 3 Select the type of security to use:
Best Security (WPA2)
Strong wireless security that uses a password (security key) to protect your
network. Recommended for most networks. The devices you connect to your
wireless network must support WPA2; see the support information for your device
if you have questions.
a. Enter a security key (must be at least 8 and no more than 63 characters) or use
the randomly-generated one provided by the Cisco RV 120W. Keys should
contain a mix of letters (both upper- and lowercase), numbers, and symbols.
Security key ratings are shown to the right of the password you enter, and are
rated from weak to secure. Cisco recommends using a password rated as
secure.
b. Click Next.
Better Security (WPA)
Wireless security that uses a password (security key) to protect your network. It is
less secure than WPA2, but it is supported by older devices. If the devices you are
connecting to your wireless network do not support WPA2, choose this option.
a. Enter a security key (must be at least 8 and no more than 63 characters) or use
the randomly-generated one provided by the Cisco RV 120W. Keys should
contain a mix of letters (both upper- and lowercase), numbers, and symbols.
Security key ratings are shown to the right of the password you enter, and are
rated from weak to secure. Cisco recommends using a password rated as
secure.

This option is not recommended; it allows devices to connect to your wireless
network if the network name is known.
