Since communication via the wireless LAN 
function is established by radio waves, the 
wireless signal may be susceptible to 
interception. To protect wireless 
communication, this player supports various 
security functions. Be sure to correctly 
configure the security settings in accordance 
with your network environment.
No Security
Although you can easily make settings, 
anyone can intercept wireless 
communication or intrude into your wireless 
network, even without any sophisticated 
tools. Keep in mind that there is a risk of 
unauthorized access or interception of data.
WEP
WEP applies security to communications to 
prevent outsiders from intercepting 
communications or intruding into your 
wireless network. WEP is a legacy security 
technology that enables older devices, which 
do not support TKIP/AES, to be connected.
WPA-PSK (TKIP), WPA2-PSK (TKIP)
TKIP is a security technology developed to 
correct for the deficiencies of WEP. TKIP 
assures a higher security level than WEP.
WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES)
AES is a security technology that uses an 
advanced security method that is distinct 
from WEP and TKIP.
AES assures a higher security level than 
WEP or TKIP.
