Tips

may have been set for each access point. Depending on the access point, a WPA setting
with a raised security level may have been established. If a network key has been set,

WPA : This stands for Wi-Fi Protected Access. It is designed to raise the security level
of wireless LANs. WPA changes the encryption keys dynamically to better deal
with attempts to deductively infer the encryption keys, impersonation and data
tampering.
WEP : This stands for Wired Equivalent Privacy. It refers to a technology used to prevent
wireless LAN wiretapping and unauthorized intrusions to raise security levels
by encrypting the contents of communications and transmitting the encrypted
data between computers.
