WPA/WPA2

WPA encrypts all traffic between the access point and the client using either TKIP or AES

encryption. Depending on the authentication protocol selected, each client must authenticate

using their own unique username, password, and security certificate.

WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

WPA-PSK or WPA2-PSK is a compromise between WPA/WPA2 and WEP. Like WEP, it uses a

pre-shared key that every user of the network must have in order to send and receive data. Like

WPA, it uses either TKIP or AES.
