Brand new ASUS RT-66U at home. Specs are here: http://www.asus.com/Networking/RTN66U/#specifications
Looking for recommendations for what data encryption to use. This is a dual band router, and encryption can be different on each band 2.4G~2.4835GHz /5.1~5.8GHz
I also found this in the manual:
I have IEEE 802.11n devices that will be connecting, so I certainly don't want to cap the data rate.
I'd like a human readable password, not some series of HEX characters... Can't claim to be a genius when it comes to wireless networking and would like to keep it simple.
Suggestions?
Looking for recommendations for what data encryption to use. This is a dual band router, and encryption can be different on each band 2.4G~2.4835GHz /5.1~5.8GHz
Available encryption: 64-bit WEP, 128-bit WEP, WPA2-PSK, WPA-PSK, WPA-Enterprise, WPA2-Enterprise, WPS support
I also found this in the manual:
IMPORTANT! The IEEE 802.11n standard prohibits using High Throughput with WEP or WPA-TKIP as the unicast cipher. If you use these encryption methods, your data rate will drop to IEEE 802.11g 54Mbps connection.
