6.3.2 WPA Setting

The adapter can automatically detect the WPA setting of the AP which the adapter intends

to connect to. To connect to the AP, you should setup the same setting with the AP.

There are two kinds of WPA mode: WPA and WPA-PSK. WPA is designed for enterprise

which requires a RADIUS Server and Certificate Server for the authentication. WPA-PSK is

a special mode designed for home and small business users who do not have access to

network authentication servers. In this mode, the user manually enters the starting

password in their access point or gateway, as well as in each wireless stations in the

network. WPA takes over automatically from that point, keeping unauthorized users that

don't have the matching password from joining the network, while encrypting the data

traveling between authorized devices.
