6.2.3 More Secure (WPA2-PSK)
The WPA2-PSK security mode provides both improved data encryption and user authentication
over WEP. Using a Pre-Shared Key (PSK), both the Device and the connecting client share a common
password in order to validate the connection. This type of encryption, while robust, is not as strong
as WPA2.
Click Network Settings > Wireless to display the General screen. Select More Secure as the
