h  WEP Key (Hex or ASCII): Type a character string into the field. For 64-bit 

enter 5 alphanumeric or 10 hexadecimal characters. For 128-bit enter 13 
alphanumeric or 26 hexadecimal characters.

WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) was designed to improve upon the security 
features of WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy).  This is used along with 802.1x 
security setting. The technology is designed to work with existing Wi-Fi products 
that have been enabled with WEP.  WPA provides improved data encryption 
through the Temporal Integrity Protocol (TKIP), which scrambles the keys using a 
hashing algorithm and by adding an integrity-checking feature which makes sure 
that keys haven’t been tampered with. EAP (Extensible Authentication Protocol) 
is an extension to the PPP protocol that enables a variety of authentication 
protocols to be used. It passes through the exchange of authentication messages, 
allowing the authentication software stored in a server to interact with its 
counterpart in the client.

WPA – PSK (Pre-shared Key) is used in a Pre Shared Key mode that does not 
require an authentication server.  Access to the Internet and the rest of the 
wireless network services is allowed only if the pre-shared key of the computer 
matches that of the Access Point.  This approach offers the simplicity of the WEP
