The following table describes the labels in this screen. 

When you use the NWD271N in Windows Vista, the procedure for setting up WPA, WPA2 
and 802.1x security settings is different from that of other operating systems (other security 
types are not affected).

The procedures for setting up WPA, WPA2 or 802.1x in Vista are the same. However, the 
procedure differs depending on whether you use PEAP (Protected Extensible Authentication 
Protocol) or TLS (Transport Layer Security) encryption. Consult your network administrator 
if you are unsure which type of encryption to use. 

See 

 to use PEAP, or see 

 to use TLS.

TTLS (Tunneled TLS) is not available when using Windows Vista, at the time 
of writing.
