    This  secti\bn  will  sh\bw  y\bu  the  different  le\fels  \bf  security  y\bu  can  use  t\b  pr\btect  y\bur  data  fr\bm  intruders.  The  DIR-636L  \bffers  the 
    f\bll\bwing types \bf security:
     • WPA2 (Wi-Fi Pr\btected Access 2)       • WPA2-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
      • WPA (Wi-Fi Pr\btected Access)        • WPA-PSK (Pre-Shared Key)
    Wha\b is WPA?
    WPA (Wi-Fi Pr\btected Access), is a Wi-Fi standard that was designed t\b impr\b\fe the security features \bf WEP (Wired Equi\falent Pri\facy).  
    The 2 maj\br impr\b\fements \b\fer WEP: 
    • Impr\b\fed data encrypti\bn thr\bugh the Temp\bral Key Integrity Pr\bt\bc\bl (TKIP). TKIP scrambles the keys using a hashing 
    alg\brithm  and,  by  adding  an  integrity-checking  feature,  ensures  that  the  keys  ha\fen’t  been  tampered  with. WPA2  is 
    based \bn 802.11i an\ld uses Ad\fanced Encrypti\bn Standard (AES) instead \bf TKIP.
    •  User  authenticati\bn,  which  is  generally  missing  in  WEP,  thr\bugh  the  extensible  authenticati\bn  pr\bt\bc\bl  (EAP).  WEP 
    regulates access t\b a wireless netw\brk based \bn a c\bmputer’s hardware-specific MAC address, which is relati\fely simple 
    t\b be sniffed \but and st\blen. EAP is built \bn a m\bre secure public-key encrypti\bn system t\b ensure that \bnly auth\brized 
    netw\brk users can access the netw\brk.
    WPA-PSK/WPA2-PSK uses a passphrase \br key t\b authenticate y\bur wireless c\bnnecti\bn. The key is an alpha-numeric passw\brd between 
    8 and 63 characters l\bng. The passw\brd can include symb\bls (!?*&_) and spaces. This key must be the exact same key entered \bn y\bur 
    wireless r\buter \br access p\bint.
    WPA/WPA2 inc\brp\brates user authenticati\bn thr\bugh the Extensible Authenticati\bn Pr\bt\bc\bl (EAP). EAP is built \bn a m\bre secure public 
    key encrypti\bn system t\b ensure that \bnly auth\brized netw\brk users can access the netw\brk.
