Encryption
Mode
It specifies the encryption modes supported by the router, including:
- None: It indicates that the wireless network is not encrypted so that any wireless devices
can connect to it. This option is not recommended as it leads to low network security.
- WPA-PSK: It indicates that the WiFi network uses WPA-PSK/AES as its authentication
method.
- WPA2-PSK: It indicates that the WiFi network uses WPA2-PSK/AES as its authentication
method.
- WPA/WPA2-PSK (Recommended): It indicates that the WiFi network uses the mixed
authentication method of WPA-PSK/AES and WPA2-PSK/AES as its authentication
method.
WiFi Password
It specifies the WiFi password which is required when your wireless devices try connecting to
the WiFi network.
Hide
It specifies whether to prevent the WiFi name from being detected by wireless devices.
If the box beside Hide is checked, the router does not broadcast the WiFi signal. The WiFi
name does not appear in the devices’ lists of available networks, either. When wireless
devices connect to the WiFi network, users should manually enter the WiFi name for
connection.
