than WEP and is based on a key that changes automatically at
a regular interval. This mode requires a RADIUS server in the
network.
WPA-PSK - Pre-Shared Key mode means that the wireless cli-
ent and the router must have the same passphrase in order to
establish the wireless connection. A RADIUS server is not re-
quired with PSK.
