Figure 48 Network > Wireless LAN: WPA/WPA2

Table 10 Network > Wireless LAN: WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

LABEL DESCRIPTION

WPA Compatible This check box is available only when you select WPA2-PSK or WPA2 in the

Server Type field.

Select the check box to have both WPA2 and WPA wireless clients be able to

communicate with the ZyXEL Device even when the ZyXEL Device is using

WPA2-PSK or WPA2.

Pre-Shared Key The encryption mechanisms used for WPA/WPA2 and WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK

are the same. The only difference between the two is that WPA-PSK/WPA2-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). A minimum of 20 characters consisting of letters, upper and

lower case, numbers and symbols is recommended.

Apply Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyXEL Device.

Cancel Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.
