Select what kind of wireless security you want to use:
• Open: Select this option to create a public “open” network to allow unauthenticated devices to
access this wireless gateway.
• WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy): This option requires a static (pre -shared) key to be shared between
the AP and wireless client . Note that WEP does not support 802.11n data rates; is it appropriate for
legacy 802.11 connections.
• WPA2: This security type uses CCMP encryption on either PSK (pre-shared key) or Enterprise (RADIUS
Server) authentication.
• WPA + WPA2: This uses both encryption algorithms, TKIP and CCMP. WPA clients will use TKIP and
WPA2 clients will use CCMP encryption algorithms.

The AP conguration page allows you to create a new AP and link to it one of the available proles. This router
supports multiple AP’s referred to as virtual access points (VAPs). Each virtual AP that has a unique SSIDs appears
as an independent access point to clients. This valuable feature allows the router’s radio to be congured in a
way to optimize security and throughput for a group of clients as required by the user. To create a VAP, refer to
“Access Points” on page 93. After setting the AP name, the prole drop-down menu is used to select one of the
congured proles.
