FRITZ!Box_7360-en.fm Seite 60 Mittwoch, 15. Februar 2012 5:21 17 Security • The WPA and WPA2 mechanisms provide for authentication while the connection is being established. For this a WPA password must be defined. When WPA is selected, the TKIP encryption method is used to encrypt the user data. In WPA2 the AES-CCMP encryption method is used. The encryption method you configure here must also be supported by your WLAN adapter. The user data are encrypted using an automatically generated key.

FRITZ!Box_7360-en.fm Seite 61 Mittwoch, 15. Februar 2012 5:21 17 Guest Access: WLAN Connection for Guests If your WLAN adapter supports WPA, but not WPA2: • • • Enable WPA encryption. Select the WPA mode “WPA (TKIP)” or “WPA+WPA2”. Replace the WPA network key with a new, unique value. If your WLAN adapter supports neither the WPA nor the WPA2 mechanism: • • Enable WEP encryption. Replace the WLAN key with a new, unique value. We strongly recommend the use of a WLAN device that supports WPA or WPA2.
