The following table describes the wireless LAN security labels in this screen.

In order to configure and enable WPA(2)-PSK authentication; click Advanced > 
WIFI Configuration to display the General screen. Select WPA-PSK (AES), 
WPA2-PSK (AES), WPA-PSK (TKIP), or WPA2-PSK (TKIP) from the 
Security Mode list.

Figure 20   Advanced > WIFI Configuration > General: WPA(2)-PSK (AES/TKIP)

The following table describes the wireless LAN security labels in this screen.

Table 16   Advanced > WIFI Configuration > General: WEP (OPEN) / WEP 
(SHARED)

Security 
Mode 

Choose WEP (OPEN) or WEP (SHARED) from the drop-down list box.

WEP Key

The WEP key is used to encrypt data. Both the MAX-207HW2R and the 
wireless stations must use the same WEP key for data transmission.

If you want to manually set the WEP key, enter any 5 or 13 characters 
(ASCII string) or 10 or 26 hexadecimal characters ("0-9", "A-F") for a 64-
bit or 128-bit WEP key respectively.

Table 17   Advanced > WIFI Configuration > General: WPA(2)-PSK (AES/TKIP)

Security Mode

Choose WPA-PSK (AES), WPA2-PSK (AES), WPA-PSK (TKIP), or 
WPA2-PSK (TKIP) from the drop-down list box.

Pre-Shared Key

The encryption mechanisms used for WPA(2) and WPA(2)-PSK are 
the same. The only difference between the two is that WPA(2)-PSK 
uses a simple common password, instead of user-specific credentials.

Type a pre-shared key from 8 to 63 case-sensitive ASCII characters 
(including spaces and symbols).
