These settings configure the security of your wireless network. There are six wireless security modes supported
by the Router: PSK-Personal, PSK2-Personal, PSK-Enterprise, PSK-2 Enterprise, RADIUS, and WEP. PSK (Pre-

Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service.) For details on configuring wireless security for the Router, turn to
“Appendix B: Wireless Security.” If you do not want to use wireless security, select Disabled in the Security Mode.
