WiFi Network Name (SSID) display. Network (Infrastructure) should be selected as
the Operating Mode.
4. Click Next to open the Security Settings.
5. Select Personal Security.
6. Security Settings: Select WPA-Personal (TKIP) to provide security to a small
business network or home environment. A password, called a pre-shared key (PSK), is
used. The longer the password, the stronger the security of the wireless network.
If your wireless access point or router supports WPA2-Personal, then you should
enable it on the access point and provide a long, strong password. The longer
the password, the stronger the security of the wireless network. The same
password entered in the access point needs to be used on this computer and all
other wireless devices that access the wireless network.
NOTE: WPA-Personal and WPA2-Personal are interoperable.
7. Wireless Security Password (Encryption Key): Enter a text phrase with eight to
63 characters. Verify that the network key matches the password in the wireless
access point.
8. Click OK to return to the Profiles list.

(AES-CCMP) Security Settings
Wi-Fi Protected Access (WPA*) is a security enhancement that strongly increases the level of
data protection and access control to a wireless network. WPA enforces 802.1X
authentication and key-exchange and only works with dynamic encryption keys. For a home
user or small business, WPA-Personal uses either Advanced Encryption Standard - Counter
CBC-MAC Protocol (AES-CCMP) or Temporal Key Integrity Protocol (TKIP).
NOTE: For the Intel(R) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN adapter, to achieve transfer rates
greater than 54 Mbps on 802.11n connections, WPA2-AES security must be selected. No
security (None) can be selected to enable network setup and troubleshooting.
To create a profile with WPA2*-Personal network authentication and AES-CCMP data
encryption:
1. On the WiFi connection utility main window, double-click an infrastructure network
from the WiFi Networks list or select the network and click Connect.
2. If these are being transmitted, the Profile name and WiFi Network Name (SSID)
should display on the General Settings screen. Network (Infrastructure) should
be selected as the Operating Mode. Click Next to open the Security Settings.
3. Select Personal Security.
