802.11r Fast

Roaming

When your device roams from one AP to another on the

same network, 802.11r uses a feature called Fast Basic

Service Set Transition (FT) to authenticate more quickly. FT

works with both preshared key (PSK) and 802.1X

authentication methods.

WPA Type

Select from WPA/WPA2 Mixed Mode-PSK, WPA2 or WPA

only. WPA2 is safer than WPA, but is not supported by all

wireless clients. Please make sure your wireless client

supports your selection.

Encryption

Select “TKIP/AES Mixed Mode” or “AES” encryption type.

Interval
