Section 4 - Security
Configure WPA-Personal (PSK)
It is recommended to enable encryption on your wireless router before your wireless network adapters. Please establish
wireless connectivity before enabling encryption. Your wireless signal may degrade when enabling encryption due to
the added overhead.
1. Log into the web-based configuration by opening a
web browser and entering the IP address of the router
(192.168.0.1). Click on Setup and then click Wireless
Settings on the left side.
2. Next to Security Mode, select WPA-Personal.
3. Next to WPA Mode, select Auto, WPA2 Only, or WPA Only.
Use Auto if you have wireless clients using both WPA and
WPA2.
4. Next to Pre-Shared Key, enter a key (passphrase). The key
is entered as a pass-phrase in ASCII format at both ends of
the wireless connection. The pass-phrase must be between
8-63 characters.
5. Click Save Settings to save your settings. If you are
configuring the router with a wireless adapter, you will lose
connectivity until you enable WPA-PSK on your adapter and enter the same passphrase as you did on the router.
