Authentication Type: The authentication type default is set to Open system.
There are four options: Open system; Shared Key; WPA-PSK and WPA2-PSK.

wireless network enable the WEP encryption. All the nodes and hosts on the
network must use the same authentication type.
WEP Key: To disable WEP security, click on the “Disable” option. To enable
WEP security, there are 2 types to select – 64bits and 128 bits. When it is
selected, the key value must be entered in ASCII or HEX format.
Note: When WEP security is enabled, all the wireless clients that wish to
connect to the Access Point must also have WEP enabled with the identical
WEP Key value entered.
