D-Link DAP-1353 User Manual Section - Security Wireless Security This section will show you the different levels of security you can use to protect your data from intruders. The DAP-1353 offers the following types of security: · WPA-Personal (Pre-Shared Key) · WPA2-Personal (Pre-Shared Key 2) · WPA2-Auto-Personal · WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) · WPA-Enterprise (Extensible Authentication Protocol) · WPA2-Enterprise (Extensible Authentication Protocol 2) · WPA2-Auto-Enterprise (Extensible Authentication Protocol 2 Auto) What is WEP? WEP stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It is based on the IEEE 802. 11 standard and uses the RC4 encryption algorithm. WEP provides security by encrypting data over your wireless network so that it is protected as it is transmitted from one wireless device to another. Keys are defined by entering in a string in HEX (hexadecimal - using characters 0-9, A-F) or ASCII (American Standard Code for Information Interchange ­ alphanumeric characters) format. ASCII format is provided so you can enter a string that is easier to remember. Four keys can be defined so that you can change keys easily.
