The '''Wireless Security''' tab is used to determine what kind of encryption your WLAN will use. You can choose between different types of '''WEP''' (Wireless Encryption Protocol) or '''WPA''' (WiFi Protected Access.) '''WPA''' provides better security because it uses improved data encryption through the temporal key integrity protocol (TKIP) but not all devices support '''WPA''' and will work only with '''WEP''' type of encryption.
